Singing Boy - Item #103

  12 Inches High x 9 Inches Wide x 7.5 Inches Deep This bust is from a Florentine sculpture of two boys singing. One child, in the nude, is seated and holds a book, ready to flip to the next page. The second boy, from which the bust comes, stands to the side of the first boy with his arm around him, hand resting on the boy's right shoulder. He wears a robe around his waist. His mouth, beautifully sculpted, is parted gently as he sings, and his eyes relay the emotion he is feeling while focusing on the music.   Artist: Unknown Museum: Unknown Time Period: Renaissance 1911 Catalog ID # - 2516 (fragment)
