Origin: France

His most damming and famous review still resonates

Aesthetically it has no repairs or any kind of restoration work

and Rowney

Height: 43

supports or bases for a large table-top

The gnomon is original and the whole of the dial has verdegris and signs of oxidisation

The angular ears were originally used to suspend the vessel over the fire and the casting seams or flash lines are visible where the two halves have been molded together

yellow and red showland paint with leather and brass studwork seats and iron lower fittings

so it proves a scarce survival

and as such her hand is also resting on a chair
