Small Louise terracotta bust

Small bust of a young girl on a base, all in light red/orange terracotta, vintage/old, reproduction "louise brongniard" after houdon. 20cm high, 12cm wide at the shoulders, approximately 8cm deep. Good general condition, I don't know if it was repainted in an earth color or if it is a thin layer of raw earth, I think it is raw earth applied to homogenize the surface, it is the result is that the details are relatively smooth, a little blurry. Some manufacturing defects (small bubbles in the hair and other more visible defects), small chip on the lower left of the chest and more noticeable chip at the base of the foot which have been repaired to the ground but a little darker, quite discreet however + some small marks of time more or less visible. Very pretty object. Unsigned. Around 900gr.
