QUICK FACTS

A fine quality 19th Century Italian Carrera marble statue of a semi nude young girl playing ball. Having garlands of flowers around her neck and looking skyward.
Signed; Donato Baraglia.
Italian
1849 - 1930
A native of Pavia, Donato Barcaglia trained in Milan and Rome. During a period of outstanding technical accomplishment in marble carving, Barcaglia was renowned for the exceptional quality of his work in this medium. The last vestiges of neoclassicism which influenced his early work were soon replaced by a personal form of verismo. Following early successes such as that of his Vendemmiatore, which he sculpted at the tender age of seventeen and which was installed in the Palazzo Reale in Milan, the sculptor exhibited to great acclaim in Europe and America. His work brought him to exhibitions as far afield as Boston, Philadelphia, and Buenos Aires. Far from turning his back on his native Italy, Barcaglia also executed several public monuments for Milan and its surrounding cities.
