Antique Italian Alabaster Marble Bust of Greek God Apollo Belvedere 19th Century

19th century
Description

A beautifully sculpted Italian alabaster bust of the famous Greek god Apollo of Belvedere, on a green serpentine marble socle stand, circa 1870 in date.

This beautifully carved alabaster bust was created in Italy during the 19th Century. The bust is after the "Apollo Belvedere", a full-size Roman original carved during the early 2nd Century AD that portrays the Greek god Apollo. It is considered to be a Roman copy of an original bronze statue created between 330 and 320 B.C. by the Greek sculptor Leochares. The original sculpture was rediscovered in 1489 and put on display in the Vatican Palace in 1511.

The attention to detail throughout the piece is second to none and the figure is extremely lifelike.

In really excellent condition, please see photos for confirmation.

Apollo 

has been variously recognised as a god of light and the sun, truth prophecy, healing, music, poetry, and more. Apollo is the son of Zeus and Leto and has a twin sister, the huntress - Artemis. Apart from his heroic courage dashingly handsome Apollo was also known for number of love affairs with both nymphs and mortal women.
