Venus Seated In Terracotta 19th Century

About the Item

Venus Seated In Terracotta 19th Century The 19th-century terracotta seated Venus is a remarkable and delicately crafted piece of art. This terracotta sculpture, signed by Falconet, showcases the artistic mastery of the era. Dating back to the 19th century, this piece possesses a unique charm and history. The figure represents Diana seated, capturing the essence of the goddess in a serene and majestic pose. Attention to detail is evident in every centimeter of the sculpture. Facial features, clothing, and the folds of the fabric are sculpted with astonishing precision, demonstrating the artist's skill in creating a realistic and captivating representation. The conservation state of the sculpture is remarkable, suggesting it has been cared for and appreciated over time. Terracotta, a low-fired ceramic material, has withstood the test of time, maintaining its integrity and beauty. Its dimensions, 50x33x20 cm, provide an impressive presence. This seated Venus would stand out as a centerpiece in any setting, whether in a living room, a study, or an art gallery. In summary, this 19th-century terracotta sculpture is much more than a mere work of art; it is a window to the past, an expression of artistic prowess, and a striking addition to any collection or decorative space. The signature by Falconet adds a touch of authenticity and historical value to this extraordinary piece.
