About the Item

A striking gilt bronze sculpture, Thai, second half 20th century. Prince Rama is a central figure in the ancient Indian epic, the Ramayana. He is depicted as the seventh avatar of the god Vishnu and is widely regarded as the ideal man—courageous, righteous, and virtuous. In the epic, Rama is the eldest son of King Dasharatha of Ayodhya and is known for his unwavering devotion to duty, family, and dharma (righteousness). The Ramayana follows his life, including his exile to the forest, the abduction of his wife Sita by the demon king Ravana, and his subsequent journey to rescue her. Along the way, he forms alliances with various characters, including the monkey king Hanuman, and ultimately defeats Ravana in a great battle. Rama’s story is one of devotion, loyalty, honor, and the triumph of good over evil, and he is considered an ideal model for living a virtuous life in Hindu tradition. From an important private English collection. Free international shipping on this item.

Early 19th Century Continental Grand Tour Bronze Sculpture of Venus de' Medici
Located in Nottingham, GB
This captivating early 19th-century Continental Grand Tour bronze sculpture of Venus de' Medici is a stunning representation of classical beauty and neoclassical artistry. Cast with remarkable detail, the figure portrays the renowned statue of Venus, revered for its grace, sensuality, and timeless elegance. The finely executed bronze finish, with its warm, aged patina, further enhances the sculpture's antique charm, making it a remarkable piece that captures both historical significance and artistic mastery.

Whether displayed as a centerpiece or as part of a larger collection, this Venus de' Medici sculpture evokes the grandeur of ancient Rome and the Renaissance period, embodying the pursuit of beauty that defined the neoclassical movement. The Venus de Medici is an ancient Greek statue that represents the goddess Aphrodite (Venus in Roman mythology). It is a marble sculpture, dating back to the 2nd century BCE...
