About the Item
Large French Neoclassical sculpture of Androcles and the Lion. Exceptional quality casting and patina. Mid 19th century.
The runaway slave Androcles became friends with a wounded lion, because he removed a thorn from its paw. When Androcles was captured and thrown to the lions, he again encountered the grateful beast, which then saved his life.

Winged David (Bronze), ex. Daniel Glaser Estate (New Orleans)

Located in New Orleans, LA

We have several other pieces from this collection in addition to this, including "Discobolus" and a fine gladiator with lance. Proudly presented by Guy Lyman Fine Art...
