Fine Late C19th French Equestrian Bronze of a Mounted Huntsman on a Carved Ovoid Alabaster Plinth Base.

Fine late C19th French equestrian bronze of a mounted huntsman on a carved ovoid alabaster plinth base. Detailed bronze of a traditionally-attired French huntsman carrying a horn , wearing a hunting dagger on his belt and mounted upon an elegant steed.

Excellent casting, patina and attention to detail to both the rider and his mount .

Portrayed in a relaxed yet attentive pose , twisted in the saddle in watchful mode.

The bronze statue stands freely upon the attractive carved alabaster plinth base with flower and ribbon decoration and fluted detail . The stand possibly associated but proves a highly successful combination .

Good consistent patina and dark colour .

The stone base with minor chips,scratches and wear commensurate with age and use.
