Carrara marble head depicting the Child Apollo, Italy, late 18th–early 19th century
Height x width x depth: 39 x 25 x 20 cm
In a classical style, the hair is rendered with wavy strands and spiral curls, drilled using a sculptural technique of classical origin. The neck widens into a truncated torso, which rests on a base. The surface of the marble exhibits a luster and a rendering of the skin typical of Italian neoclassical art inspired by ancient statuary.
