Marble Sculpture and Its Original Column, 19th Century
About the Item
This amazing sculpture in Carrara marble was made around 1850 by the French sculptor Joseph Michel-Ange Pollet, after one of his plaster models presented at the Salon de Paris in 1848. It is a statue in the round called An Hour of the Night, showing a woman stretching with her eyes closed. The sheath in sea-green marble with Doric codes is fluted at the shaft, and is equipped with a rotating device. A weary putti awakens at the feet of the sleeping Hour and holds flowers in his hands which are similar to those on the naked woman's crown. As her delicately bent feet swim through the air, a drape appears to slide from her pelvis to the putti at her feet, ending in the shape of a drop of water near the signature "J. Pollet" on the base. A similar work by J. Pollet is in the collections of the Louvre, but only ours is accompanied by its sea-green marble column. He is very skillful in the aerial figure that he seems to make the marble body float in space.
