About the Item
This turn of the century marble composite cast version of Venus after Bertel Thorvaldsen is in a wonderful state of decay. Over time she has lost both hands and acquired a wonderful patina. The base pictured is not available.
There are several cracks including above her left knee but seems to be stable as she has been moved several times since she has been in our possession. All details are fine, and her state of incompleteness add to her charm.
Wonderful every way you look at it.

Antique statuary Carrara sculpture “Venus Italica” after Antonio Canova
By Antonio Canova
Located in Tyrone, Northern Ireland
An antique Carrara marble sculpture “Venus Italica” after Antonio Canova (1757-1822)
Made in Italy during the 19th century.
When the Medici Venus was forcibly removed from the Tribuna of the Uffizi by Napoleon’s forces, King Louis I of Etruria commissioned Antonio Canova to replace the figure.
