Bronze sculpture last foever!

I was just contacted by a collector whose bronze sculpture was in hurricane Harvey it was under water for 2 weeks and it was fine it just needs to be cleaned and a new wood base. Last year a collectors house burned to the ground and his 2 bronzes were saved they just needed to be repatinaed and have new wood bases. Bronze is such a strong and durable medium to work in, it can survive fire and flood. Bronze sculpture last foever!
