Neoclassical Bronze Allegorical Sculpture of a River God

A detailed cast bronze sculpture depicting a lounging River God, an allegorical figure often associated with water sources like the Tiber or Nile. The figure is characterized by a long, flowing beard and wavy hair, holding a large urn from which water appears to be pouring. The craftsmanship displays a high level of anatomical detail, particularly in the musculature of the arms and the expressive facial features. The sculpture appears to be made from a heavy metal alloy, likely bronze or spelter, with a deep brown patina and visible verdigris oxidation near the urn's opening, suggesting age and exposure to moisture. Its style is reminiscent of 18th or 19th-century Neoclassical European works inspired by Greco-Roman antiquities. The figure is seated on an uneven, naturalistic base that seems to be mounted on a light-colored stone or marble pedestal. Regarding condition, there is noticeable wear to the finish, several small white scuff marks on the bicep and shoulder area, and a significant amount of dust and grime accumulated in the crevices of the drapery and beard. There are no immediately visible maker's marks in the provided image, but the quality of the casting suggests a professional foundry production from the late 19th century.
