<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Julius Germanicus, post: 2839182, member: 80783&quot;]Last week at the flea market I bought this statue which shows a young lady about to distribute wreaths.</p><p>It is 69 cm high, weights 18,3 Kilograms and is made out of Alabaster and another material (Marble?). I suppose it was created in France or Italy in the early 19th century.</p><p>The seller could tell me nothing more about it than that the had bought it at an auction in Paris some decades ago.</p><p>Even though it is slightly damaged, I like it´s classical style and wonder if the lady (probably not meant to be Nike / Victoria, as she has no wings) is about to distribute the wreaths to the winners of some (greek?) games or if she might instead be a personification of something else.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]671322[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]671324[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Are there any experts here who can help me with the attribution? Feel free to post statues or coins with Victories and the like...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
