Sculpture Depicting Ariadne In Resin And Marble Dust - Tuscany, Second Half Of The 19th Century
Sculpture depicting the goddess Ariadne in resin and marble dust. Tuscany, second half of the 19th century. Ariadne was often depicted with idealized, almost androgynous features, as we can see in this sculpture. In this case, she is depicted with her hair gathered at the back in a coiffure, crowned with a headband and vine leaves, with long curls falling over her shoulders. The goddess Ariadne was the wife of Dionysus, god of wine and celebration, and one of the most multifaceted and complex deities of ancient Greece. This sculpture aims to emphasize classical beauty.
