Artist Statue/scupture-Wino/bum hobo?

This is another wonderful estate sale find....for you!

This is a rather poor looking artist sitting on a park bench painting. He has torn shoes and his toes peek out on the ends. He is smoking a pipe and looks very content in his work. He has his artist pallete in one hand and paintbrush in the other. This is a very detailed piece, as you can see he is painting 3 sailing ships and the birds are flying in the sky. He has a wine bottle sitting next to him with the cork in it! Also what looks like an opened tin can of what could have been his lunch? All around the bench he is sitting on has green leaves. His nails are tinged with paint. Very realistic looking!

I do not have any more information on the artist, but can tell you the bottom is marked N Italia with a fan of lines above the N

This man measures 10" tall by approx 9" wide

Heavy, measures 5.5 lbs.

Shipping will be thru UPS to protect your item and get it there safely. I will estimate only the shipping in the shipping box ebay provides but please know this is an ESTIMATE only as I do not yet know your zip code/area and each area is different. I will add the correct shipping charge after you win, or you can email me for a price quote and I will obtain one from UPS.

Insurance is not an option on ebay so please email me if you are the winner and I will add insurance onto your invoice, as I am not responsible for the item after it is mailed so insurance is strongly suggested!

Thanks for your interest!

Feel free to ask questions if you need additional photos or more measurements.

Please read below auction terms

RETURN POLICY

All sales are final

I'm sorry, my business is so small scale that I can't accept returns. I provide pictures and a description of each item, and you are encouraged to email me with any questions or requests for more pictures before bidding. Please be aware that if you violate the terms of my auctions unfairly, you will be blocked from bidding on any future auctions of mine.

I do the best I can to describe items accurately and to show pictures that display an item's attributes. I am also pricing items lower than retail in pre-emptive acknowledgement that I may have missed a detail that I just didn't see. But if you want brand new, still in box, fresh from the factory items, please, go shop with someone who can offer you that. I cannot.

Apparently the star rating system for sellers is somewhat deceptive: it appears that anything less than five stars is counted by eBay as a negative. I have read reports (from other sellers who sell regularly on eBay) that if a seller only gets an average of 4.1 stars, eBay will suspend them as a seller. So please consider this when you are rating me - or any other seller for that matter. Go easy on the sellers: they are just humans, and many do not have separate shipping departments to send out items as soon as they are paid for. If you have any problems with your item or if the item is 'significantly' different than what I have described it, please contact me and I will work with you on your issue.

CUSTOMS

Please be aware of your own customs and duties taxes as I am not responsible for charges you may incur.

I list new items daily, and hope you stop back again soon!

Thanks for looking!
