While standing on her toes she raises a glass in cheers of good times and helps entertain the court. She is a jester and wears a jester ensemble. She wears a long sleeved fitted shirt that not only fits snugly around her arms and chest but also wraps down around her waist and hips giving her ensemble a unique look. Her shirt sleeves are cuffed with small ruffles and it is intricately embroidered with a whispy design right below the v neck line. Her shirt seems to button on the side to her trousers as it follows down an embroidered hem line. Her trousers have a unique trim as they are arched and expose her legs and thighs. She wears a pointed hat with two button on top, which is common of jesters. Her face is sweet and smiling wide as she dances around. This is a beautiful piece and captures a jester in their true element. This bronze sculpture is 100% bronze and handmade. It has a green and soft brown patina and is mounted on a beveled marble base. This sculpture was cast using the "Lost Wax Method" which ensures the quality of detail and craftsmanship, this piece is signed by Milo. World famous sculptor "Milo" is the artistic partner of the Lynn Forbes School of Sculptureand is offering an exclusive signature in the wax of every piece of his items, which are Custom Cast with European Bronze Finery. In effect it makes EACH SCULPTURE an ORIGINAL since each one is different than the next (similar to a Limited Edition). Again, Miloour partnerIS THE ORIGINAL SCULPTOR of this incredible work of art. Milo was born in Paris in 1939; Milo lived most of his childhood in Andalusia, Spain. Influenced by an artistic family background, he began sculpting at the age of seventeen. After apprenticing with several accomplished sculptors both in America and Spain, he began his own work focusing equally on steel and bronze. Horses and other animals were a natural direction of his work to follow. As a child he was surrounded by horses and witnessing the fighting bulls of Spain gave him an instinct for the inherent drama of these animals. Combining a special cement mixture with steel has allowed him the fluidity of metal with the timelessness of stone. This process enables him to capture the essence of the animal's nature. The characteristic rough texture and movement of line make Milo work easily identifiable in both cement and bronze. Condition: This sculpture is in perfect condition.
