Stone Sculpture of a Classical Nymph Holding an Amphora, 19th Century

About the Item

This 19th-century sculpture depicts a classical female figure with an elegant posture and serene expression. Carved in stone, the piece is notable for the fine details in the flowing hair and the gentle curves of her garment, giving it a sense of movement and dynamism. The woman holds an object in her hands, possibly a vase or amphora, suggesting a connection to water, fountains, or the symbolism of abundance and fertility. At her feet lies a fallen triton, a detail that adds a touch of mythology and symbolism to the piece. The triton, a mythological sea creature, represents the subdued forces of nature or the calm after a storm, adding depth and contrast to the sculpture’s meaning. The piece is not damaged; the visible wear is due to the white paint that was traditionally applied to sculptures to enhance their details. This finish could be reapplied, restoring its original appearance and leaving it in perfect visual condition.
