    • Abduction of the Sabines after the model of Giovanni da Bologna

      Abduction of the Sabines after the model of Giovanni da Bologna

      sia antion, riga, latvia

      The sculptural group “The Abduction of the Sabines”, made using the technique of copper electroplating according to the model of the Florentine master Giovanni da Bologna, a representative of the early Baroque. The work illustrates a well-known plot of Roman history when robbers and pirates, associates of Romulus, invited the neighboring Sabine tribe to visit in order to get women, at a signal from Romulus, the Romans rushed to grab the maidens, pushing away their fathers and husbands. Thus ensuring the future of the eternal city. The work is being built by a spiral screw; from the defeated and begging for mercy, to the solemn possession of the prey at the top. The expression of the struggle is ensured by the multidirectionality of the hands. Passion and valuing what is possessed is the leitmotif of the protagonist.The Florentine master Giovani da Bologna, nicknamed Giambologna, is considered one of the best masters of late mannerism. The sculptural group he created combines the classical nude forms characteristic of Greek sculpture and the dynamism of mannerism. In 1563, Giambologna became a member of the prestigious Academy of Arts in Florence. He creates his first masterpiece for the city of Bologna: after receiving payment for the bronze sculpture of Neptune, the master creates it for the fountain of the same name. The design of the sculpture of the Sabine Women began in 1579. Initially, the artist planned to create only two figures, as can be seen from the preparatory bronze blanks (Capodimonte Museum, Naples), but then he added a third figure, as evidenced by wax models (Victoria and Albert Museum, London). A full-scale plaster model of the sculpture can be seen in the Galleria dellAccademia in Florence. The statue illustrates the legend of the beginning of the “Sabine War”. Almost the entire population of Rome consisted of men, and local tribes did not allow their women to marry Romans due to their poverty. Romulus organizes a celebration in the city, inviting many guests, including his neighbors, and at a certain point in the celebration, a violent abduction of women occurs, subsequently captured in stone by the great master Giambologna.

    • Bust Cossack. Russia. 1909.

      Bust Cossack. Russia. 1909.

      sia antion, riga, latvia

      Plaster, bronze, bust portrait of a Cossack. 1909 year. H-62 cm. A bust of highly artistic modeling, demonstrates a psychological portrait of a Cossack in a fur hat and gazyry. Buttoned tightly, ceremoniously facing the viewer in the front. The chin is proudly raised, but the look of tired and intelligent eyes is lowered and immersed in itself, as if in fate. Dramatic sculpting of a hat and a slight turn of the head create an amazing, piercing depth of the image; passions of doubt, obedience to purpose. The work has a high artistic value. Signed and dated 1909 on the back in the lower right corner. Width: 55cm, Height: 62cm, Depth: 35cm, Weight: 12kg, Condition: Signs of wear commensurate with age, Material: Bronzing, ID: 3050

    • Important Marble Group After The Antique The Wrestlers

      Important Marble Group After The Antique The Wrestlers

      sia antion, riga, latvia

      Important group in Carrara marble after the antique representing a wrestler triumphant over his opponent, on a base in the naturalist style. The modeling of the work, deliberately excessive, helps to convey the virulence of the struggle. Note, part of a finger missing and restored by our workshop. Very high quality of execution. The ancient marble group from which this bronze is inspired was discovered in 1583 near Porta San Giovanni in Rome. In June of the same year, the group was purchased by Cardinal Ferdinand de Medici, future Grand Duke of Tuscany, and is kept in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence. Width: 46cm, Height: 43cm, Depth: 30cm, Weight: 36.5kg, Condition: Very good condition, 1 missing end, Material: Marble, ID: 8791
