This is a bronze bust of CAESAR AGUSTUS.It is signed by the maker BENEDETTO BOSCHETTI ROMA. He lived from 1820 to 1860 and is well listed with a large number of bronzes in the art price guides.I could only find one comparable in size of Marc Antony and that one realized $2900.00. He did this bust in at least two sizes.Ours is the smaller version at 11 3/4 inches tall.This is in nice original condition with no dings or scratches.A nice example of a grand tour item!

This is a bronze statue of the Farnese Bull.The original was a 2nd century Bc. bronze that represents the myth of Dirce. A marble copy was done in Rome around 300 Ad. and was discovered in 1545.It was restored and put in the Farnese Palace. Reductions in bronze have been made since the 1600,s but were always pricey.

This is a nice European bronze statue of a painter from the 16th or 17th century. It is signed in script Johnson.I could not place a certain artist as there are too many with this last name.This shows great quality with a lot of detail such as the fur edge on his coat.A nice dark brown patina in nice condition. He stands a little over 22 inches and weighs about 20 lbs.I would say he is from the 1920's or earlier. From an old Philadelphia area estate.
