"Sleeping Male Figure", Allegorical Bronze Bookend with Nude, Owl, Mask
Child
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Truly fine and extraordinary, this large and heavy bronze bookend, beautifully sculpted, cast and chased, depicts a sleeping male nude figure, his arm resting on a Classical mask, his body curled around an owl, and his left arm clasped by a small child.
