About the Item
Crouching Venus, neoclassical Carrara marble sculpture, early 19th century.
An 18th-century English tourist to Florence wrote that of all the Venuses in the Uffizi, "only one graceful crouching Venus captured my imagination." Regarded as representing the Goddess after birth or as she emerged from the bath, the Crouching Venus was a much-loved model among Grand Tourists, whose demand for high-quality copies produced numerous variations on the theme. While the most famous copy remains the one made by Coysevox in 1686 for Versailles, most of those that have come down to the present day were produced from the mid-19th century onward, particularly by Florentine and Volterra workshops. More rarely encountered are the models produced during the Neoclassical period, between the 18th and 19th centuries,such as the one in question, of a rare refinement of execution, still entirely handcrafted with the rasp and crank drill, the unmistakable mark of which can be seen in the Venus' locks of hair.
This model comes from a Roman workshop.
Excellent antique condition.
