Description

You are bidding on a wonderful antique double Sphinx grand tour souvenir. It measures approximately 3.5 inches long by 2.75 inches wide and 2 inches tall. Each piece is entirely cast in bronze. Pieces like these were produced in the nineteenth century as Grand Tour souvenirs. They were then brought back to commemorate and display their journey at home. Such pieces reflect the genuine interest as well as the shortage of good antiquities on the art market at the time. I ship worldwide. Professional shipping guarantees swift and safe delivery to your door. Email me with questions. Good luck.
