DESCRIPTION
CESARE LAPINI (Italy, 1848 - ca. 1910).
"Dopo il bagno". Florence, 1885.
White marble.
Signed on the base.
Measurements: 85 cm. height.
Cesare Lapini takes up again in this sculpture the Greco-Roman theme of the Venus pudica, although humanizing it by concretizing it in the figure of an ordinary girl, devoid of the supernatural aura of Aphrodite. In a gesture between amusing and modest, the young woman crosses her right arm over her chest and with her left hand she holds the lower part of the towel. This acquires the texture of a flowing garment, and has been executed with extreme delicacy, enveloping the naked body.
Cesare Lapini was an Italian sculptor, active mainly in Florence. Lapini sculpted both small marbles and larger works. Many of his subjects were female. Among his works are "Surprise", a young woman surprised while undressing; "Il primo bacio"; "Quanto ti voglio bene", "Non lo credo"; "Fior del pensiero"; "La serenata" and "Amore del mare".
