A beautiful car mascot and sculpture titled 'Raging Jester', also known as: the Devil Facing the Wind.

The figure depicts an expressive jester or devil leaning dramatically into the wind, capturing a strong sense of movement and character. Dimensions: 17 x 11 x 21 cm. Weight: 2.1 kg. Signature: F. Preiss. Foundry stamp: yes. Numbered: yes. Condition: Excellent (see images). It is made out of a high quality bronze and it is mounted on an elegant marble base with natural veining. An exceptionally decorative work and a fascinating example of early automotive sculpture.
