This enchanting 19th-century marble figure, signed; Carrier-Belleuse (1824–1887),, depicts a graceful female musician captured mid-performance. Clad in flowing drapery, she emanates elegance with a serene expression, her head slightly bowed in concentration. The intricate detailing of the gilded mandolin she holds adds a striking contrast to marble figure, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship. The instrument features ornate carvings that reflect the artistry of the period. Her delicate posture and the gentle curves of her attire enhance the sense of movement, as if she’s inviting listeners into her melodic world. This piece embodies the romantic spirit of its time, resonating with both beauty and artistry.
