Beautiful Bronze of Narcssius by Donatello (1386 - 1466 ) based on the wonderful patina and the screws that hold the statue to the base it is bekieved to be a late 17th or early 18th century recasting.

Narcissus is a character out of Greek/Roman Mythology. There are several stories that go with the myth, but all of them have to do with his great beauty. ( you can read these stories, simply google narcissus myth)
This bronze is a wonderful peice of art as you can see by the pictures and the great patina. not like the more recent castings that claim patina, selling upwards of $2500.
Happy bidding.
