Lot 214: A Late 19th/Early 20th Century Spelter figure

A spelter figural sculpture depicting a standing female allegorical or classical figure, characterized by flowing drapery and a naturalistic pose, suggesting a late 19th to early 20th-century Art Nouveau or Neoclassical aesthetic. The sculpture exhibits a multi-toned brown and greenish-gold patina, stands on an integral naturalistic bronze plinth, and is mounted on a brass ring atop a circular, reddish-brown variegated marble base. The figure’s right arm is broken off cleanly at the shoulder and lies separately, grasping a small bird.
