About the Item
A pair of Royal Busts
Of Clotilde of France, Queen of Sardinia
And Marie Adélaïde of Savoy, Dauphine of France
Both noblewomen carved from marble and dressed in contemporary fashion, wearing luxurious flowing garments, their hair coiffed, done up and ribbon-tied. On Sienna marble octagonal pedestals.
French, circa 1880
Dimensions: H: 79 in / 200 cm
The Two "Marie Adélaïde's"
The marble portrait busts represent two French royal figures, Clotilde of France and her great-grandmother Marie Adélaïde of Savoy. Marie Adélaïde Clotilde Xavière, known as Clotilde of France (1759-1802), was Queen of Sardinia and the younger sister of King Louis XVI of France, who was married to Marie Antoinette. Marie Adélaïde of Savoy (1685-1712) was the Dauphine of France and Duchess of Burgundy. The famous sculptor Antoine Coysevox portrayed the Dauphine as the Roman Goddess Diana (today at the Louvre), as well as sculpting her likeness upon which the present bust is based.

Pair of Antique Marble Busts
Located in Tyrone, Northern Ireland
An extremely well carved pair of Statuary Carrara marble busts on marble pedestals, by important sculptor Odoardo Fantacchiotti.
Odoardo Fantacchiotti (11 May 1811–4 June 1877) was an Italian sculptor of the late-Neoclassic period. He was born in Rome, but his family moved to Florence. In 1820, he enrolled in the Accademia di Belle Arti di Firenze.
At the Academy, he studied under S. Ricci, and first started exhibiting in 1828. Gaining the patronage of the Grand Duke, he continued his studies, following the ideas of Aristodemo Costoli of depicting the "bello naturale". In 1839 at the Academy, he exhibited the work of the Massacre of the Innocents. In 1840 he was named professor at the Academy.
Among his public works are the statue of Boccaacio and dell'Accorso for the ground floor niches of the courtyard of the Uffizi, medallions commemorating Francesco Redi and the bust of Ferdinando II de Medici for the Museo della Specola, a statue of Sallustio Bandini (now at the Accademia dei Georgeofili, but initially planned for the loggia of the Uffizi.
