Bianca No. 2
Bronze Sculpture
by
Oronzio Maldarelli
Size… 8″H on 2.75″H base
circa 1964
The sculpture has been maintained in perfect condition,
but for glue from the way it was affixed to a shelf (images shown)
This Oronzio Maldarelli sculpture is highly rare and sought after…
Great conversation piece!
