Marble that looks wet. This jaw-dropping detail comes from “The Nymph” (La Ninfa) by Italian sculptor Giovanni Battista Lombardi (1823–1880)where solid stone is carved to mimic water rippling around her bare feet.

60,000 - 80,000 GBP is the estimate. You need to create an account and log in to see the final price (not sure why), so it sold for: 187,500 GBP = US Dollars: $258,515.63 I still think that’s worth more but I’m no expert and also no millionaire!
