Note du spécialiste

This model is illustrated in the catalogue J.Chiurazzi & Fils, Fournisseurs de Cours et Muses, Milan, 1900, and appears as item number 17, Victoire. The figure is represented as lacking her right arm and fingers of her left hand, the original in the Naples Museum having been excavated in this state. A later catalogue; Fonderie Artistiche Riunite, J. Chiurazzi & Fils - S. De Angelis & Fils, number 4997, p.210, describes the model as Victoire aux ailes tendues et dont le bras droit est perdu, confirming this.
