| Description | Incomplete figure of a male, with only the torso represented. The head, one arm, the other forearm and both lower legs are missing. . . The figure does not appear to be clothed and is posed standing upright with left arm behind and right arm against the body. The rear of the piece is poorly cast with a number of casting flaws. Little of the original surface survives and the copper alloy has a pale to mid green patina (PAS). |
