A Large Italian carved marble bust of a veiled Maiden by Giuseppe Carnevale

About the Item

This is a high quality solid marble bust, though one of a kind, is particularly finely composed and delicately carved. Although she does not wear a wreath of flowers, this young woman, with the modest tilt of her head and the veil with its elaborate lace border tied in a bow hanging down., suggests a bride rather than a Vestal Virgin. Often, the image of a veiled woman was intended to embody Italia, This is signed by Artist Giuseppe Carnevale, Rome and hand made in the mid 19th century.
