French Antique Marble Statue of a Leaning Youth
About the Item
This early 19th century French antique marble statue of a leaning youth has stood the test of time for over 220 years. This has given the marble a beautifully weathered finish that only time can create while the form and face of the cherub is still intact and recognisable. The curly haired youth reclines on a cushion carved into a tassel at the front which unusually takes the form of a long-tailed animal – possibly a dog or lion – at the back. A beautiful antique statue for a period garden or feature of a rockery.

- 19th Century over Life-Size Marble Statue of Bacchus after MichelangeloLocated in Essex, MAMid-19th century over life-size carved marble statue of Michelangelo's "Bacchus". Grand Tour copy through the "Point To Point" method directly from the original keeping its masterful proportions and Fine details in an exact size to Michelangelo's work.

This statue was originally commissioned by Cardinal Raffaele Riario. However, it was rejected by him and eventually found its way to Jacopo Galli, Cardinal Riario’s banker and a friend of the sculptor, who purchased it in 1506. Some 66 years later it was bought for the Medici and transferred to the royal house in Florence, Italy. Currently it can be viewed at the Museo Nazionale del Bargello in Florence.
