Description from the seller

Refined sculpture depicting Dante Alighieri, made of marble powder and characterized by an elegant aesthetic render. The face of the Supreme Poet is sculpted with great attention to detail, while the typical laurel crown underscores his central role in the history of literature.
The lines of the bust and the drapery of the garments are rendered with care, creating a harmonious and realistic effect. The marble-like finish, with warm and natural tones, gives the object a classic and timeless charm. The surface texture recalls traditional artisanal workmanship, making the piece particularly decorative.
