AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Magnificent sculpture depicting a faun's face with grapes in white Asiago marble, from Venice, private collection.
Mascaron usable also as the mouth of a fountain thanks to the presence of the hole, it is a work of sublime quality and craftsmanship, radiating an extraordinary power.
Impressive precision and attention to detail (see the mouth, the eyes, the beard, etc..), it looks almost lifelike.
Belonging to a vast collection featuring various mythological and mystical faces.
Undoubtedly a sculpture executed by one of the period's greatest masters, there are not many of such merit.
The dimensions are not excessive, well proportioned, and the weight is appropriate.
A masterpiece more unique than rare, exclusive.
Excellent if hung on the wall.
It presents in generally excellent condition, intact.
It will be shipped with a wooden crate and proper packaging.
Economical, secure, and trackable shipments worldwide.
Pickup at our warehouse is also available.
