The Ancient Marble and Alabaster Sculptures category offers a refined Female Sculpture, a Young Woman leaning on a classical column and peering out in anticipation. The work is made of alabaster, a shiny and elegant material used by artists to sculpt their works of art.
The era of the ancient sculpture is the late 1800s, 19th century.
The antique female alabaster statue bears the signature G. Gambogi, an Italian sculptor.
Giuseppe Gambogi (1862-1938) was born in Pisa but worked in Florence where he had his studio-atelier with his sons.
For his works, he uses various materials in marble, alabaster, and bronze.
A sculptor with a romantic and orientalist taste.
Many works made by the sculptor were made for the foreign market, and some of them are preserved in the Dante Museum of Ravenna.
The sculpture is in excellent condition even though it has undergone minor restorations.
