LARGE ANTIQUE ITALIAN CARRARA MARBLE GROUP TITLED 'THE LOVE BOAT' CIRCA
-
Description
This delightful 19th-century Italian carved white Carrara marble group is a charming depiction showcasing six children within a boat. The intricately sculpted scene captures a sense of youthful playfulness and harmony.
Three of the children are engaged in playing musical instruments—a violin, a flute, and an angel harp—adding a whimsical touch to the scene. Another child, resembling a cherub, is depicted rowing the boat shaped like a swan. Meanwhile, two other children are embracing, one holding a flower, evoking a sense of innocence and friendship.
The contemporary oval-shaped brown, maroon, and white marble base complements the exquisite Carrara marble group, providing a refined setting for the sculpture.
Crafted around 1880, this marble group encapsulates the artistry of the period, capturing the joyous spirit of childhood and camaraderie. Its intricate details and playful composition make it a delightful and captivating piece that adds both artistic value and a sense of whimsy to any space.
