    Good evening I have just purchased this lovely bronze figure of a nude female lying on a bed. I have just found some makers marks that look a bit like F.F. Can anyone help me with the artists marks, possible age or the name of the bronze. Any help would be appreciated

    Excellent photo. Maybe another member will have some thoughts. I only know the subject. There are many copies, ancient & modern. Yours appears to be a somewhat altered repro of the Borghese Hermaphroditus, sleeping on a mattress that was sculpted by Bernini.
