A 19thC Italian Painted Ceramic Figure of a Chanting Monk sub-Beth Carter @ Doe & Hope Height: 44 inches (extended)

Height: 44 inches (extended)

Genuinely impossible not to like

the iron now wonderfully patinated

it has suffered knocks and scuffing to its base so there is paint flaking to the whole but overall it remains in fairly good decorative condition

It is therefore very likely that the murderer entered Goulston Street from New Goulston Street and then headed North up Goulston Street dropping the apron piece at the entrance of Nos 106 to 119
