About the Item

The work is incredibly detailed, starting with the man’s feet and sandals and all the way to the top. The Sun shows in the centre representation of the heat, light and fire. It is an absolutely unique find and a museum’s piece. The sculpture has been mounted to a later time granite pedestal.
