AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant sculptural pair inspired by the famous lions created by Antonio Canova for the funerary monument to Clement XIII in St. Peter's Basilica. The works depict the two iconic felines in complementary poses: the Sleeping Lion, lying in a tranquil and composed attitude, and the Watchful Lion, vigilant and majestic.
Both sculptures are produced via a reconstructed Carrara marble cast, with surfaces meticulously finished by hand, characterized by excellent attention to anatomical detail and a soft rendering of volumes typical of Canova's language. The pair offers a strong aesthetic and decorative impact, ideal for prestigious interiors, scenographic entrances, or classical settings.
