About the Item

An exquisite marble sculpture entitled 'The Triumph of Love' captures a Cupid, embodying Love, innocence and playfulness. The figure is depicted in a dynamic pose, slightly bent forward, reflecting a sense of curiosity and engagement with the world around him. His curly hair is meticulously carved, adding to the lifelike quality of the piece. The Cupid holds strings attached to a pair of doves, symbolizing love and peace, which rest gracefully on a swirling cloud base. This base is richly textured, suggesting movement and fluidity, enhancing the overall sense of vitality in the work. The child’s bare feet and delicate anatomical details showcase Canova’s exceptional skill in rendering the human form, while the draped fabric enhances the visual narrative of innocence and freedom. The intricate details and smooth finish of the marble demonstrate Canova’s mastery, making this piece a captivating representation of neoclassical themes. Batch 86 60294 CNKZZ
