Aristide Petrilli Decorative Objects

Italian, b. 1868

Aristide Petrilli was born in Tivoli, Lazio and studied at the Art Institute of Florence and then the Academy in 1889–90. He worked with Raffaello Romanelli before setting up his studio at Via Dei Serragli in Florence. Petrilli, like his contemporaries Caradossi and Frilli, is best known for his romanticized depictions of Renaissance and neoclassical themes often employing different colored marbles or gilt highlights. Petrilli exhibited a bust of Joan of Arc at the Paris International Exhibition of 1900 and Wrestling Bacchantes at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition (St. Louis World's Fair)

Located in Stamford, CT
19th century Italian carved alabaster head of a saint wearing a bishop's mitre in the Gothic style. Though a fragment, the intense gaze of this small carving gives it a lot of presence. Rendered by a master carver, this piece has a lot of personality. Likely an architectural fragment, the weathered surface and distressed condition only add to the appeal of this unique sculpture.

Italian Marble Bust Antique Sculpture of “Cleopatra” by Aristede Petrilli
By Aristide Petrilli
Located in Shippensburg, PA
A very powerful bust capturing the fate of Cleopatra, where she committed suicide by allowing an Egyptian cobra to bite and poison her. At 39 years old, her death was a culmination of her failed alliance with her husband Mark Antony against Octavian and effectively ended the war with the Roman Republic. By committing suicide, she deprived Octavian of the opportunity to capture her and parade her as a prisoner - upon receiving word of Cleopatra’s death, Mark Antony ended his life with his sword. A tragic tale that Astride Petrilli captures with a certain emotion and expression that is noteworthy: Cleopatra holds her shoulders high with dignity with the asp wrapped around her wrist. His sculpture captures the very moment the asp has latched onto her flesh; her brow is furrowed deeply, revealing a hint of physical pain and a well of emotional pain as all is lost. Her garment falls from her shoulders revealing a scarab shoulder cuff and matching necklace, her hair pulled back beneath a crown incised with a spread-winged Phoenix surmounted by a (now absent) bird’s beak. The sculpture is signed along the back of her shoulders "Gall… Prof. APetrilli Firenze” in his standard script. She is raised over a stop-fluted base with the same Phoenix wings in raised relief over the block lettering of her name. Literature: "Nuovo Dizionario degli Scultori Italiani", A.
