Further details
A MARBLE FIGURE OF DAVID, SIGNED BY GIOVANNI BATTISTA VILLA (1832-1899), ITALIAN, 1862
Giovanni Battista Villa (1832-1899), born in Genoa, is best known for his funerary monuments and genre sculptures marked by a certain verism. In particular, he executed the tomb of Raffaele Pienovi (1779-1870) - a Genoese entrepreneur, broker, merchant and impresario - in the cemetery of Staglieno (Liguria), and realized religious sculptures for the Basilica of Santa Maria Immacolata in Genoa.
His full-length David, caught in the act of defending himself against Goliath, holds firmly in his left hand the weapon, his sling, that will kill the giant.
