Scultura, Narciso - 60 cm - Bronzo

Superb 20th-century bronze sculpture executed using the lost-wax casting technique, depicting Narcissus.

The model is inspired by the ancient sculpture discovered in Pompeii in 1862 and now preserved at the Archaeological Museum of Naples.

The figure stands on a circular base decorated at the bottom with a palmette frieze. Narcissus is portrayed nude, rendered with remarkable refinement in the carving and detailing. The sculpture is enhanced by a magnificent patina that emphasizes its forms and elegance.

A high-quality work in excellent condition.
