About the Item

Beautiful lost-wax cast bronze sculpture depicting a young Mozart. The famous composer and musician is depicted wearing typical eighteenth-century clothing, wearing trousers, boots, a bodice and a knee-length jacket, as can be seen and noted in his most famous portraits. The hair is gathered in what is the traditional wig, while the gaze is focused on the violin he is playing; the latter has an iron string in the bow. The sculpture is mounted on a bronze base, on the front of which is the inscription “Mozart”, which identifies the subject of the work. On the same base you can also read the inscription “Chiparus Lamant”, probably attributable to the sculptor and the foundry. French manufacture from the late nineteenth century.

19th Century Cesare Beccaria Bronze Sculpture
Located in Milan, IT
19th Century. Cesare Beccaria Bronze, 49 x 13 x 15 cm The bronze statue examined faithfully reproduces the famous Milanese monument by Giuseppe Grandi (1843-1894) dedicated to Cesare Beccaria. The work, from the top of a high base in white Montorfano granite, dominates the homonymous Milanese square, a sad stage for executions at the time of Austrian rule, in a bronze copy of 1914 to replace the original stone statue which already at the beginning of the new century showed serious signs of deterioration. The marble became part of the collections of the Gallery of Modern Art and is now located inside the Palazzo di Giustizia in Milan. The initiative regarding the erection of a monument dedicated to Cesare Beccaria originates in 1865, in support of the proposed abolition of the death penalty...
