A Roman bronze mounted water spout cast as the mask of a comic actor – estimated at $4000-6000 at Freeman’s.
Hunter, who died in January 2018, worked with stars such as Marlene Dietrich, Barbra Streisand and Whoopi Goldberg.
Much of the ensemble is devoted to classical sculpture in bronze and marble. Pictured above is one of Hunter’s Roman bronzes: an 8 x 5in (20 x 13cm) mounted water spout cast as the mask of a comic actor.
With a provenance to the Royal Athena Galleries of New York in 2000, it has an estimate of $4000-6000.
