About the Item

This metal figure was made in France at the turn of the 20th century. Depicting a youthful figure in motion, holding a bird aloft, the miniature sculpture recalls the classical motif of the youth and the dove. Made from tin, the metal has been patinated to resemble oxidized bronze. The pits and wear enhance the time-touched effect and add an authentic hint to this charming accent.
