About the Item

Solid bronze figure of a woman reclining on a sofa, “Paolina Bonaparte as Venus Victrix” – a famous motif by A. Canova, from Paris, probably around 1950. Engraved on the plinth “A. Canova” (Antonio Canova, 1757–1822), probably the most famous sculptor of Classicism. Foundry’s mark: “J.B. Deposee, Bronze Garanti Paris,” dark brown patina. Standing on a rectangular black marble plinth. Between 1805 and 1808, Canova created the world-famous sculpture “Paolina Bonaparte as Venus Victrix,” which depicts his sister-in-law Paolina Bonaparte reclining on a bed, scantily clad. The original white marble sculpture stands in the Galleria Borghese in Rome. This is a high-quality recast in heavy bronze, probably from mid-20th century Paris.
