    This looks like a mid-century bronze piece, but I can't place the artist. Also I used vinegar and baking soda to remove the tarnish, but tarnishes up quickly again. Is it copper? Any insights appreciated. IMG_1344.jpg IMG_1345.jpg IMG_1346.jpg IMG_1347.jpg

    Looks like it’s in the style of Henry Moore, it’s a bronze. Bronze has copper in it.
    The tarnish you refer to is patina, it’s not supposed to look like a brand new bright penny. Going to be difficult to ID this without a signature and no other info.

    Some of the markings on it tend to remind me of the other piece you just showed us............!:rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Do you think it is the same artist? @Aquitaine

    That I can't say, I just thought some of the markings around the bodies looked close to your other modern piece you just posted.....IMHO!! Maybe I'm the only one thinking that though.....was hoping others might have thought that too and commented the same!!! Do YOU see similarities???

    I DO! But it just might be that the collection is similar and it might be different artists.

    Hmmm, I also think it may be the same artist. Again letters that look like Fam in the same area as the other sculpture sculpture 2.jpg but could be me again.
