Frishmuth Replica?

Hi, bringing this to the proper forum, I'm such a newbie so bear with me

Came across this piece, and fell in love with it. I know very little except for what I have found on the original artist. I assume it's a replica, there is no gorham stamp. She stands at 60", not including the base. Not sure if it's real bronze or not. I know it's based on Frishmuths Crest of the Wave, and is stamped with H.Frishmuth and 1925. I had contacted two auction houses in the Dallas, TX area and they could give me very little in the way of value, or anything else.

Would love to hear yalls opinions!

 

I am finding a lot of these out there in various permutations and quality. I would think yours to be a fairly recent reproduction out of Asia. Whether in brass or bronze, I can't tell from your pics. These large size reproductions still do not come cheap.

Here is a similar one for comparison.....

How on earth did you find that? I have googled and googled and never came across one the same size! You are awesome!

 

Here is an original for comparison. Sold by Sotheby's for $22K......

I knew for sure I wasn't dealing with an original, but for my own knowledge wanted to know where this came from. So you think Asia replica? I seriously love it, and will never part from it. She has lived in many places in my house, I would actually love to put her outside in a small garden by my pool, it would be a perfect spot but have worried what the weather would do to her!
