专家说明

Arabian sheik was first exhibited at the 1867 Paris Exposition universelle and then the 1873 Vienna exhibition (no. 887), where it is interesting to speculate the original Viennese owners of the present lot first encountered the sculpture. Another bronze of the same model with similar patina is the collection of the Mahoud Kahil Museum, Cairo, a bequest to the Egyptian government.
