After Giovanni de Giambologna (1529-1608)
Two figural sculptures of "Fortuna" and "Mercury," late 19th century
Each unmarked
The patinated bronze statues of Mercury with a caduceus and Fortuna reaching, each set on a stepped stone pedestal with relief bronze mounted figural bands
2 pieces
Mercury: 57" H x 16" W x 19.5" D; Fortuna: 53.5" H x 11" W x 16" D

Each overall good condition with scattered scuffs and darkening/oxidation to bronze commensurate with age. Scattered minor rubbed wear to the patina of each. Fortuna slightly loose from her mounting juncture with the base, with more pronounced mold seam of left shoulder proper. Mercury with loosely mounted caduceus, which is slightly bent. The stone with pea-sized chipped losses at the bottom edges and felt applied to undersides. Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran's catalogue or can be made available upon request. The absence of a condition report does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction.
