About the Item

A very unusual and erotic bronze of a nude with an octopus. Certainly not your standard piece of sculpture. If you follow the green patina, you can follow the octopus. It is not easy to make out the artist's name, but we feel it is Italian, and done by A. Sorsi. Sorry we could not currently find anything on the artist. We know it's Art Nouveau period, and not some current import. One of the more exciting bronzes we have offered in a while.
