Antinous bronze

A$0.00

5660 A late 19th century Neapolitan bronze bust of Antinous, probably cast by Chiurazzi, after the antique. Very well modelled and cast and with a wonderful Pompeian type patina to imitate an ancient bronze. The ringlets at the ends of his hair in full relief. Mounted on what is probably the original grey veined square marble socle. What appears to be another cast of the same bronze is held in the Yale University Art Gallery.

Naples, Circa 1880

25.5cm high including plinth
