Adriano Cecioni Furniture

Italian, 1838-1886

Adriano Cecioni was born in Florence in 1836 into a middle-class family belonging to the local gentry. He began his artistic training in 1859 at the Florentine Academy under the sculptor Aristodemo Costoli. In 1860, Cecioni participated in a competition to provide military artworks for the Tuscan government. His submission, a maquette for a statue of Charles Albert of Savoy, won a prize but was deemed unsatisfactory by academicians and was not commissioned. In 1863, Cecioni received a grant and went to Naples, where he was instrumental in the formation of the artists' group Scuola di Resina. A major work of this period was his sculpture, The Suicide, which he exhibited at the Florence Academy in 1867. In 1872, Cecioni spent six months in London, where he contributed a series of caricatures to Vanity Fair magazine. After he returned to Italy, the sculptures he produced for the rest of his career were mainly genre works, often humorous. He died in Italy in 1886. His work is in some serious Italian collections, including Galleria d'Arte Moderna di Palazzo Pitti, Florence; Galleria Nazionale d'Arte moderna, Rome; Museo statale d'Arte Medievale e Moderna, Arezzo and Pinacoteca di Brera, Milan.

18th Century Patinated Bronze Group of Apollo & Daphne
Located in Pasadena, CA
A Bronze Group Of Apollo & Daphne, Cast From A Model Attributed To Francois Lespingola (1644-1705) France, circa 1780-1790 Note: The base is added in 19th century. (2nd Photo) Christie's 4 MAY - 5 MAY 2011 LIVE AUCTION 1003 Lot Essay The unveiling in 1625 of the marble group of Apollo and Daphne in the Villa Borghese, Rome, caused a sensation and made a European celebrity of its creator, Gianlorenzo Bernini (1598-1680). The scene, emblematic of the victory of Chastity over Love, derives from Ovid's Metamorphoses and describes how Apollo, struck by Cupid's golden arrow, pursues Daphne, who has in turn been struck by Cupid's leaden arrow, which has stirred her to flee. During her pursuit, Daphne prays to her father for salvation and at that moment branches sprout from her arms and roots from her feet and she is eventually transformed into a laurel tree: "a thin bark closed around her gentle bosom, and her hair became as moving leaves; her arms were changed to waving branches, and her active feet as clinging roots were fastened to the ground - her face was hidden with encircling leaves." (Metamorphoses I, 453 ff.) The model upon which the present bronze is based has been variously attributed, to Antoine Coysevox (1640-1720) and Giovanni Battista Foggini...
