Grand Tour terracotta bust of an Egyptian princess, 19th c
About the Item
This striking small bust captures the timeless elegance of an Egyptian princess, inspired by the art and aesthetics of Tell-el-Amarna, a period known for its distinctive representations of royalty and grace. Carved in terracotta and painted, the headpiece features smooth contours and minimalistic detailing, which evoke a serene yet regal expression, characteristic of ancient Egyptian depictions. The bust sits on a beautiful Siena marble base, adding warmth and contrast with its rich yellow and earthy veining patterns. The smooth finish of the base complements the sculpture above, giving it a grounded, substantial feel while also enhancing the overall visual appeal. Ideal for collectors and admirers of Egyptian art, this piece offers a sophisticated, historical aesthetic, making it a unique addition to any display or art collection.

19th Century Alabaster Grand Tour Sculpture of the Temple Of Vespasian And Titus
Located in Stockholm, SE
This finely carved 19th-century alabaster sculpture is a nice example of Grand Tour artistry, depicting the Temple of Vespasian and Titus in Rome. The base is inscribed "TEMPIO DI VESPASIANO," and the entablature bears the partial inscription "ESTITVER," referencing the Latin word "restituerunt," meaning "they restored," from a 3rd-century inscription commemorating renovations by Emperors Septimius Severus and Caracalla.
The Temple of Vespasian and Titus, located at the western end of the Roman Forum, was initiated by Emperor Titus in 79 AD to honor his deified father, Vespasian.
