Vienna Bronze Gallery presents:
A fine old Vienna bronze.

For U.S. collectors or students this figurine may look a little strange, a student in his magnificent uniform telling us that he was a member of a student fraternity

The first fraternity, called Urburschenschaft (original Burschenschaft), was founded on June, 12, 1815 at Jena as an association of all German university students inspired by liberal (the European meaning of this word) and patriotic ideas. It is affirmed that members of Burschenschaften are often affiliated with conservative parties.

Austrian Burschenschaften are, depending on their roofing bond (especially if they are member of the Burschenschaftliche Gemeinschaft), are associated with extreme right-wing ideas, in particular with the wish for a German state encompassing Austria.

DIMENSIONS: ca. 3 " (7.5 cm) tall

CONDITION: Good. Some age related paint losses. Original paint, no restoration, no repairs, no touch ups! Please do not forget that you are buying a used item that always may show some traces of wear!
