A superb Carrara marble sculpture of Saint John the Evangelist, France 19th century. The carving demonstrates exceptional technical mastery: the drapery falls in deep naturalistic folds, the expression is one of contemplative calm, and the overall disposition of the figure conveys the spiritual gravity appropriate to the subject.
Carrara marble — the material of Michelangelo and Canova — lends the work an immediate association with the highest tradition of European sculpture.
Very good condition.
Dimensions: H 55 cm, L 22 cm, W 18 cm.
Dimensions in cm ( H x L x l ) : 58 x 18 x 16
