Italian sculptor (18th century) - Venus bathing.

Italian sculptor (18th century) - Venus bathing. 27 x 22 x h 45 cm. Full-length figure in modeled terracotta. The sculpture depicts a Venus seated on a rock, caught in the act of drying her foot. The figure, in Neoclassical taste, is rendered with anatomical precision in the modeling of the torso and limbs, while a cloth gathered beneath her animates the composition with soft folds. The face, tilted downwards, expresses a gathered concentration. The model harks back to the tradition of seated Venus figures from the Italian academic circle of the 18th century.
