Anyone recognize this Constantine Brancusi piece I found

Hello, I have a question about one of Brancusi's works. I found this beauty in my granddad's basement. I'm having trouble finding out it's worth, so my question is does some of you know the price of this work, If anyone can confirm it's authenticity and if it somehow turns out precious, should I consider selling It, or keeping it. Im not into sculpture, so thats why i need help, the one thing I know about Brancusi is that he is romanian and a very respected artist. By the way l'm from Bulgaria, which is the south neighbour of Romania. Thank you in advance!

Transcendental

His masterpiece, "The Veiled Virgin," carved from flawless Carrara marble, stands as one of the most astounding achievements in the history of sculpture. Strazza's mastery of the "wet drapery" technique carried on the tradition of other Italian sculptors like Giuseppe Sanmartino, who, a century earlier, had crafted mesmerizing marble veils, exemplified by the renowned "Veiled Christ." This artistic tradition can be traced back to earlier sculptors, including renowned Renaissance artists such as Michelangelo, as well as the ancient masters from Greece's Hellenistic era, who were celebrated for their intricate depictions of fabric folds. However, in the mid-19th century, Strazza pushed this technique to its limits. The delicate, layered effect he achieved allows the observer to distinctly perceive Mary's facial features through the translucent veil while simultaneously creating the illusion of weightlessness. The process of how he transformed solid stone into something so soft and fluid, using only basic hand tools, remains a profound mystery

First Sculpture

Hi all, this is my first sculpture - and post! I just want to get some feedback on this. I don’t have any experience. I am open to critiquing, even if harsh, so please feel free to share. I want to keep with this and improve my work. I was going for a monster kind of shark look, not necessarily realism.. but perhaps I can try that next time. Thanks!
