Description:   A. Santini was an accomplished sculptor from Tuscany Italy and apprenticed at the age of 12.  He studied in Florence and was instrumental in developing the process of combining marble, alabaster and resin. This material is then poured into molds made by Santini and left to harden sitting at room temperature.  The figure is then taken out and completely finished by hand in the very old artistic Italian tradition and style that the great masters of marble handed down through the ages.   He died in 1975 but his family continues sculpting.  It is signed as shown and feel free to make reasonable offers.  Thanks!!

Size:  approximately it measures  11" tall x 9" wide x  5" deep 
Condition:  It could use a good cleaning but I have found no damage other than a few flea bites that could be original to the sculpture.
