Girl Playing Tennis, Italian Marble Sculpture
-
Description
Dimensions: Height: 22.84 in (58 cm)Width: 8.67 in (22 cm)Depth: 12.6 in (32 cm)
This exquisite sculpture captures a moment of joy and athleticism, beautifully rendered in Italian Carrara marble. The sculpture, likely made in the 1920s or 1930s, depicts a young girl in mid-serve, embodying both grace and dynamism. Her clothing and hairstyle faithfully represent the fashion of the era, while her expressive face and cheerful smile convey the joy and lightheartedness of a friendly tennis match.
The artist's skill is evident in the fine details of the girl's figure and movement. The sculptor has masterfully conveyed the movement and energy of the scene, particularly through the expertly carved folds of the girl's skirt, which seem to flutter with her movement. Although the work is unsigned and does not have a certificate of attribution, the exceptional craftsmanship speaks volumes about the artist's talent.
Over the years, the marble has developed a patina, adding character and depth to its surface. It is important to note that there has been some restoration on the left hand of the sculpture, but this does not detract from the overall beauty and impact of the piece. This sculpture is a testament to the timeless appeal and enduring craftsmanship of early 20th century marble artwork. - More Information
