About

This refined mid-century Italian alabaster sculpture depicts a romantic Neoclassical figural group rendered with graceful movement and classical elegance. The composition features a seated young woman attended by a kneeling male companion offering a basket of fruit, a timeless pastoral motif symbolizing devotion and abundance. Carved in softly toned alabaster, the figures display delicate facial features, flowing drapery, and carefully modeled anatomy. Subtle hand-applied shading within the folds enhances depth and highlights the sculptural detail. The warm ivory coloration is beautifully complemented by the substantial circular marble base, which features natural honey and gray veining and a polished finish that adds contrast and stability. The piece reflects the enduring appeal of Neoclassical revival sculpture popular in mid-20th century Italy, combining romantic subject matter with refined craftsmanship. Ideal for display on a console, pedestal, or library table. The sculpture is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, with natural tonal variation consistent with alabaster. Dimensions: 9″ Diameter x 18.5″H
