Just look at the soldier, the businessman drinking his beer, the beautiful female and all the impressive and rich scrolling details around them. Before the body with all these figures could have been cast in liquid bronze, all these figures first would have had to been hand-sculpted into another material (often wood). From that other material molds would have to be made first and those molds would have then been filled with liquid bronze. After the bronze was cooled and set, the cast would have been removed from the mold, polished and patinated. This would have to be done for all the arms and 'socket holders' as well and finally all the parts would have to be drilled and put together with nuts and bolts. I won't go into the process of how the perfectly shaped alabaster shades and all the antique sockets...
