Pair of French Art Nouveau spelter busts (bronze-finished zinc alloy, not solid bronze) titled "L'Hiver" (Winter) and "L'Été" (Summer), each signed "F. Iffland" in the casting, circa 1900. Both retain their original aged bronze patina with areas of wear showing the lighter spelter beneath, consistent with 120+ years of age — please study the photos. No chips, cracks, or repairs noted. A handsome matching pair for a mantel, bookshelf, or collector's cabinet. Photos show: both busts together, each bust from the front, the incised F. Iffland signature, and the back of one bust.
