About the Item

A most decorative and finely detailed Italian 19th century white Carrara marble statue, signed G.F. Lapini. This wonderful statue is raised on an oval marble base where the boy is standing with his legs crossed leaning on a tree trunk. The talented boy is formally dressed in knee-high boots and an animal fur vest over his shirt tied with a ribbon. He plays a straight trumpet which is head up to his lips and his long curly hair flowing out from under his hat. His hat displays a charming rope tied around the crown with a bouquet of budding flowers. Cesare Lapini (1848 - 1893) - Born in Florence, Lapini was a famous and acclaimed Italian sculptor of the 19th century who sculpted both small marble and larger works.
