拍品描述：
Italian school of Herculaneum, 19th century.
"Pair of fawns".
Two sculptures in patinated bronze.
Bronze base.
Measurements: 87 x 77 x 27 cm.
Pair of sculptures in round bulk, cast in patinated bronze, belonging to the Pompeian school of the late eighteenth or early nineteenth century. The pieces represent a male and a female fawn, slender and graceful, captured in an attitude of alertness with the neck erect and head elevated, as if perceiving a distant sound in the forest. The quality of the modeling stands out in the naturalistic treatment of the anatomy, with a meticulous definition of the folds of the skin, the turned legs, and the careful representation of muscles and tendons, which confers dynamism and realism to the figures. The erect ears, bulging eyes and finely stylized muzzles reinforce the expressiveness of the animals, evoking the elegance and lightness characteristic of classical Pompeian iconography. These sculptures reflect the neoclassical taste for the reinterpretation of the natural world through an idealized aesthetic, combining anatomical precision with a subtle stylization, with which they wanted to evoke the decorative statuary of the Pompeian era.
