Head of a Young Bacchus in White Marble. We are thrilled to present this exquisite sculpture, meticulously carved from fine Italian white marble, depicting the head of a young Bacchus, the Roman deity revered for his connection to wine, the harvest, and the pleasures of the senses. Created in the first half of the 20th century, this work captures the enduring charm of Bacchus, a subject that has inspired countless artists throughout history.
The sculpture stands out for its exceptional artistic quality, characterized by meticulous attention to detail in the facial features and proportions, which reveal a profound mastery of sculptural techniques. Although the work is unsigned, its craftsmanship is evident and speaks for itself. It is in excellent condition, with only a faint blue line visible beneath the chin (as shown in the accompanying photographs). This slight imperfection is located in an area that remains in shadow when displayed, ensuring that the overall impact of the work is not compromised.
Set on a black marble base, the sculpture not only highlights the purity of the white marble but also enhances its overall aesthetic. This piece, imbued with classical elegance, would make a distinctive addition to any private art collection, offering both visual beauty and a tangible connection to the timeless tradition of sculpture. Don’t miss the opportunity to own this captivating work of art, destined to become a conversation piece and a highlight of your collection.
