An Empire Ormolu Figure of Apollo circa 1810, now mounted as a table lamp

Apollo standing next to a tree stump encircled by a snake, raised on a circular patinated bronze pedestal.  Elements missing.

There is a drill hole to the stump in front of the figure of Apollo which suggests a mount was above, mostl likely a lyre that would have been held in Apollo's left hand. Very minor marks to the ormolu with minor traces of verdigris consistent with age. Rubbing to the bronzes consistent with age. Very minor losses to the mounts particularly the left side mount on the cylindrical base. In otherwise good condition.
