Cupid. Glazed porcelain. Possibly Meissen, 19th century.
With sticker on the base. Presents restorations.
Porcelain figurine with an oval, gilded base on which Cupid is depicted reclining, characterized as usual by his wings, bow, and quiver of arrows. He also carries a torch and is depicted with a garland of leaves. This piece bears strong similarities to the figures featured on Meissen clocks dating back to the 19th century. VL Veneziani was a shop with headquarters in Via Frattina in Rome (and another shop in Via Gregoriana), specializing in the sale of antique and antique-style paintings, furniture, and porcelain. Works related to this trade are held in various private collections and at the Fondazione Federico Zeri of the University of Bologna. -
