About the Item

This elegant 19th-century Grand Tour bronze sculpture represents Narcissus, the character from Greek mythology known for his beauty and self-admiration. Standing 65 cm high, the figure is rendered with remarkable detail, emphasizing the natural grace and youthful physique of Narcissus. The patinated bronze gives the sculpture a rich, dark finish, enhancing its classic aesthetic and depth. The pose is typical of depictions of Narcissus, with his gaze directed downward as though captivated by his own reflection. His stance, with one hand delicately extended and the other resting on his hip, conveys a sense of elegance and self-assuredness. Intricate details, such as the texture on his sandals and the curls in his hair, demonstrate the skill of the sculptor and highlight the period's attention to classical beauty. This piece would make a distinguished addition to any collection of classical or mythological art.
