Beschreibung:

A Spanish or possibly Spanish Colonial alabaster model of St George slaying the dragon, 18th century, the Saint portrayed astride his rearing horse, a drape billowing behind him, on a tiered and moulded octagonal section base, 44cm high, the base 19cm wide Condition Report: Old repairs to horse's front right leg and a gesso-like substance between the horse and the rockwork base, where it was likely previously re-attached. The rear is quite coarsely carved without the same degree of finish, suggesting that it was intended for frontal viewing. Rubbing to exposed edges including the facial features, slight nibbling to edges of socle. There is a roughly circular aperture to the upper edge of the drape, which may be the design. Full condition report available on request. Condition Report Disclaimer
