Bust, Marble, Melpomene, Italy, Circa 1885
Marble Bust – Melpomene, Muse of Tragedy, Italy, circa 1885. An elegant white marble bust depicting Melpomene, the muse of Tragedy in Greek mythology. Made in Italy around 1885, this piece perfectly reflects the Neoclassical style of the late 19th century. The sculpture is distinguished by: Abundant, finely sculpted hair adorned with bunches of grapes and vine leaves; a face of great gentleness, with delicate features and a meditative expression; and subtle drapery, testifying to the technical mastery of Italian workshops of this period. The marble retains a beautiful original patina and shows slight signs of age, guaranteeing its authenticity. A refined and decorative piece, ideal for a Neoclassical art collection or an elegant interior.
