Description
Comprised of: 1) The only female in this lot is a copper on plaster bust with a light brown patina. The bottom has a partially legible inscription, "M. Monti Elatruo 1856", 6-1/2" tall. 2) Brass bust of French General, 5-1/2" tall. 3) Porcelain bust of French military man. The subject wears the Badge of the Order of the Holy Spirit. It is mounted on an ornate ceramic pedestal. 4) The smaller of two Admiral Nelson busts mounted on a wood pedestal, the integrated socle has inscriptions on three sides, "Presented by E.R. VII", "Nelson, British & Foreign Sailors Society", "Containing copper from Nelson's Ship VICTORY". 5) Admiral Nelson, while it is not possible to verify, the relative lightness of this fine work leads us to think that it is copper over plaster on a wood pedestal. Three sides of the integrated socle have inscriptions, "Made of copper from Nelson's Flagships", "NELSON", "Presented by British & Foreign Sailors Society". Condition (Excellent). Size Largest: 12"H
