Description
French school, c. 1800, after a late 16th-century Florentine model Bacchus with a panther Bronze statuette with a brown patina H.: 22 on a black marble plinth, H.: 2.4 cm Related works: - Italy, probably Florence, Bacchus and a panther, 16th–17th centuries, bronze, height 22.4 cm, New York, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, inv. 1982.60.99; - Italy, Bacchus with a panther, probably 16th–17th centuries, bronze, height 23.2 cm, New York, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, inv. 32.100.190; - Anonymous, Bacchus, bronze, height 23 cm, Stockholm, National Museum, inv. NMSk 330. This small bronze figure of Bacchus was long attributed to Francesco da Sant’Agata or to a late 16th-century Florentine workshop influenced by Cellini, and subsequently to the body of work by Barthélémy Prieur. Recently, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, which holds a copy, has classified it as a 16th–17th-century Florentine work.
