The Thinker Sculpture

About the Item
An original work of art by artist Raffaello Romanelli, this stupendous piece draws inspiration from renowned sculpture “The Thinker” by Rodin (“Il Pensatore” in Italian). Capturing a young man ruminating, a timeless symbol of human reflection, this magnificent oeuvre was handcrafted by observing a live model and simultaneously working on a clay sculpture, which is the first step to create bronze artwork of this kind.
