The sculpture of the day that I propose to you today is the Female Bust sculpted by Antonio Tantardini in the second half of the 19th century.
The elegant marble bust belongs to a private collection and shows a young woman deep in thought, with looking down.
Tantardini’s technical ability to sculpt Carrara marble It is especially noticeable in the young woman’s refined features, in the hairstyle of her hair gathered on her head and held on her forehead with a ribbon.
Notice the modernity of the jewels that the Milanese sculptor wanted to sculpt: the necklace with a circle-shaped pendant and the earrings that look like they were made by a contemporary designer.

Another piece of skill is the shirt that slides off the woman’s shoulders and appears to be made of real pleated fabric.
The bust is signed on the base by the artist with the words ANT.NIO TANTARDINI. MILAN.

For now, your always Miguel Ángel Buonarroti greets you and will wait for you in the next posts and on social networks.
