Baroque Style Silvered Bronze Statuette of a Putto Carrying a Fruit Basket

About the Item

A Baroque style vintage bronze statuette of a putto carrying a wicker fruit basket with silver patina. Inspired by the drama and opulence of the Baroque era, this vintage bronze statuette is an exquisite homage to classical artistry. Depicting a putto, perhaps a spirited participant of a Bacchanale, he gracefully shoulders a wicker fruit basket, each piece enticingly rendered, hinting at the bounty of nature's gifts. The figure's delicate attire—a wispy cloth—adds an ethereal touch, emphasizing the angelic innocence of the putto amidst the indulgence of the scene. The statuette's silver patina exquisitely accentuates the intricate detailing, from the putto's animated expression to the rocky base adorned with dainty flowers. As an embodiment of Baroque grandeur, this piece becomes a pivotal decor accent in one's home. Perfect for aficionados of classical art, it can be showcased on a mantle, accent table, or within a curated collection, bringing elegance and historical gravitas to a space. Its allure lies not just in its craftsmanship but in the narratives it evokes, making it a timeless addition to any art lover's domain.

Carlo Marcellini 'Florence 1644 – 1713', Florentine Baroque Putto
Located in Bruxelles, BE
Carlo Marcellini (Florence 1644 – 1713) Putto White and green marble 41.5 x 73.5 cm This marble putto carved in high relief, almost a tutto tondo, and set on an elegant green marble background, appears almost naked, sitting on a cloud. His peculiar pose, in adoration, suggests that the work was a part of a larger composition including other figures in devotion. Published in 2007 by Sandro Bellesi in the monograph dedicated to Gioacchino Fortini (pg.155), this beautiful marble putto was included in the catalog of Carlo Marcellini, a prominent figure in the baroque renewal of Florentine art. Born in Florence in 1644, Carlo Marcellini received his artistic education in the city of the lily, specializing in stone sculpture and stucco modeling under the guidance of Bartolomeo Cennini before continuing his studies in Rome in the Accademia Medicea founded by the Grand Duke Cosimo III in order to familiarize some more promising artists with the essential “ taste of Rome ”. Under the guidance of Ercole Ferrata and Ciro Ferri, Giovan Battista Foggini...
