Amusing Bear Figurine in Bronze. Gallo-Roman or Roman Britain, c. 2nd-3rd century AD. Charming genre study: animal seated, head cocked to one side, and one paw atop a floral scroll. The body simply rendered, with expressive modeling to the head. Base chipped. Overall in fine condition, with brown to olive-gray patina. Height: 1-7/8"; on lucite stand. Delightful study. Bears are a popular, yet less common subject.
Estimated Value $200 - 300.
