Description
The winged female statue is signed, "Aug Moreau", and a metal plaque on the base is signed, "Victoire, par Aug. Moreau (Medaille d'Or)". Excellent and very clean statue and base. The lady Victoire has a wreath in her left hand, a wreath on her head, a flowing sash from her shoulder, and the wind swept dress. The statue alone is 29" high. The ball diameter is 6" and in excellent condition, possibly repainted long ago in a very dark green. We have owned this clock for several years and in fact it has sat on my computer credenza for over two years. Like all French swing clocks it swings very slow and not very far each side of center. This is one of the best French swingers we have had in a while.
