Music and Art, Pair Antique Gilt Bronze Grand Tour Sculptures, 19th Century

About the Item

A pair of beautiful gilt bronze maidens representing Music and Art. Music holds a lyre, known for its use in Greek classical antiquity, in her left hand and is bringing her right hand forth to play the instrument with a beguiling expression. She is artistically dressed in a flowing tunic with an ornate bejeweled belt to accentuate her slim waist and buttoned to reveal a shapely leg. Art is equally appealing, if not more so, with an intricately braided hairstyle, curls cascading to the nape of her neck, she stands holding a palate and paint brushes next to a tall Grecian urn. Her off the shoulder tunic is buttoned at one arm and just held in place by a cross body sash belt. Marvelous sense of movement to both sculptures. They stand on cylindrical alabaster plinths. Condition: please note that at one time these sculptures were fitted for electricity and have slight discoloration on the back, apart from that they are in very good condition. Beautiful patina and detail.
