French Terracotta Sculpture Studio Torso Belvedere Grand Tour Style 19th Century

after 1800

About the Item

a very interesting sculpture, a studio of the Belvedere Torso made in french in the 19th Century. Standing on a double order circular wood base, the sculpture present an harmonic and detailed work with a significant study of the original Belvedere Torso. The sculptor made a faithful work to the original, with an impressive anatomical work and also a well done synthesis of plasticity and movement. The Belvedere Torso is a 1.59 m (5.2 ft) tall fragmentary marble statue of a male nude, known to be in Rome from the 1430s, and signed prominently on the front of the base by "Apollonios, son of Nestor, Athenian", who is unmentioned in ancient literature. It is now in the Museo Pio-Clementino (Inv. 1192) of the Vatican Museums.
