About the Item
A well-known Canadian sculptor, Alice Winant (nee Czitron) Quebec, Canada/ Romania 1928-1989, unique sterling 925 sculpture of an old bearded fisherman sitting on a stump, holding a fish. Hand signed sterling plaque on wood base A. Winant, back of sculpture impressed with 925 / sterling. Hard to know how many ounces of silver were used, I'm sure sculpture is partial weighted.
