height cm 17,5
A large male statuette of archaic taste, with defined pectorals, hair rendered by incised parallel lines, the face with large almond-shaped eyes, the mouth drawn into a smile; and a tenon below for insertion.
Untouched dark green patina, resemblig to that of the votive deposits found in 1869 in Fonte Veneziana (Arezzo, Tuscany).
Provenance. English private collection; said coming from the Viennese family Schneider collection, formed since the early 20th century.
