Item Details

A delightful Pietra Di Vicenza stone Boy playing a Lute standing upon its' historically associated composite stone plinth.

First quarter 20th Century.

Beautifully carved, with a gentle and serene expression. The statue has a time-worn patination of delicately coloured lichens.

Vicenza stone is characterised by its light tones ranging from ivory to greys. It is composed mainly of calcium carbonate and within its textured surface it is evidently grainy with inclusions of marine residues from the coral barrier reef in the area of the Bercici hills south of Vicenza. Over time the stone hardens after cutting, making it perfect for sculpture and statues.

The statue is ideal for your courtyard or Italian garden.
