Cast Metal Garden Statue of a Faun, probably Continental, 19th century, ht. 37, wd. 32 in. Note: A cast faun like this one was sold at Sotheby's in 2007. In the auction listing, which attributed the casting to the F. Chiurazzi foundry (after the antique example), it notes that the similar example formerly resided in the Ferreyra Palace in Cordoba, Argentina, a French Classical-style house built by Dr. Martin Ferreyra, a noted early 20th century surgeon. Provenance: The collection of Eylandt Antiques. Estimate $600-800 The absence of a condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging.
