Description

This is a fine Japanese Meiji period bronze of a smiling bare foot old man dressed in peasant clothes, circa 1900. The level of detail is exceptional from fine detailing of the man's facial features to the woven basket on the man's back, the conical hat in his left hand and the utensils hanging from his rope belt. The figure stands on a naturalistic base.

Dimensions: Height 23 x Width 15 x Depth 13 cm
Weight 1.71 kg

Condition: The bronze is in fine condition with a lovely dark patina. There's just a few places such as the man's nose where the colour is lighter due to wear.
