Bronze Hermes a Riposo Sculpture from Chiurazzi, Early 1900s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

This exquisite bronze sculpture, titled "Hermes a Riposo," is a stunning representation of the famous ancient Greek deity, Hermes, depicted in a moment of rest. Crafted in the early 1900s, this small yet remarkable artwork measures 10 x 11 x 6 cm, showcasing the exceptional quality and detailed craftsmanship for which the historic Chiurazzi Foundry of Naples is renowned.

Although this piece does not bear the foundry's hallmark due to its size, the superb execution and material quality strongly suggest it was produced by Chiurazzi, a name synonymous with the finest bronze casting traditions. Known as "quartine" in the trade, these small-scale bronzes were highly prized for their beauty and precision.

The sculpture captures Hermes in a seated position, exhibiting a serene and contemplative expression. The detailed anatomy and lifelike posture reflect the artist's skill in rendering the human form with both accuracy and artistry. This piece is a must-have for collectors of classical art and those who appreciate historical reproductions of ancient masterpieces.
