Other Works






1: Venus and Adonis, statuette; 2: Young Faun and Infant Heron, gilt bronze statuette. 3: Young Faun and Infant Heron, another bronze statuette
(I cheated slightly with the middle image; it’s actually a black and white picture that I’ve coloured
to match an inferior picture of the gilt bronze, but I assure you the colour is an exact match!)
