Superb bronze of the Grand Tour representing the Arrotino or the Scyte flayer.
linked to mythology and the famous myth of Apollo and Marsyas, the Scyte was a slave in the service of the god who had to flay Marsyas.
our bronze takes up the famous marble discovered in the 16th century and located in the Uffizi Museum in Florence.
this bronze is superb in quality of casting and chiseling, look at the finesse of the details: the face with the sideburns on the temples, the finesse of the mustache and the beard, but also the fingers of the hands as well as the toes.
the slightly bronzed medal-colored patina is very well preserved and has a beautiful glaze.
very faithful to the original statue which is considered one of the most beautiful antique sculptures visible today, our bronze restores with force and beauty its original model.
a very beautiful bronze from the middle of the 19th century, a very beautiful souvenir of the grand tour.
