Description
Bronze sculpture of an unidentified Australian infantryman wearing a slouch hat. The same figure features in another of Gilbert's sculptures, 'Gunners' [ART12503], indicating this small bronze was probably a study, or spare figure for that group bronze showing Australian artillerymen in battle.
