Lot 2753 | Paar Furietti-Kentauren
Gegenstücke. Bronze, dunkel patiniert. Ebonisierte Holzsockel mit Plinthen aus weiß und rot geädertem Marmor. Fein ausgeführte Güsse nach den berühmten antiken römischen Skulpturen aus grau-schwarzem Marmor, die auch als Alter Kentaur und Junger Kentaur bekannt sind. Dargestellt sind ein reifer, bärtiger Kentaur mit gequältem Gesichtsausdruck und ein junger, lächelnder Kentaur mit erhobenem Arm. Entstanden Ende des 1. oder Anfang des 2. Jahrhunders n. Chr. nach hellenischen Vorbildern, sollten die stark gegensätzlichen Stimmungen den römischen Betrachtern an die vor Liebe gequälte oder vor Freude erhobene Seele erinnern. 1736 wurden die Skulpturen von Monsignore Giuseppe Alessandro Furietti in der Hadriansvilla in Tivoli gefunden und Prunkstücke seiner Antikensammlung. Nach dem Tod Furiettis im Jahr 1764 gelangten die Kentauren als Meisterwerke antiker Bildhauerkunst in die Kapitolinischen Museen. Die Skulpturen waren seit dem 18. Jahrhundert als Illustrationen von Kentauren beliebt, zudem wurden Bronze-Abgüsse gefragte Grand Tour-Objekte und repräsentative Schaustücke, die man in ganz Europa sammelte - beispielsweise die großen Paare an der Haupttreppe der Royal Academy in London und am Château de Malmaison, dem Wohnsitz von Kaiser Napoleon und seiner Frau Joséphine. Ges.-H. 54 cm-60,5 cm. A pair of Italian bronze groups of the Furietti Centaurs on ebonized wood and marble bases. Late 18th century. Italien. Rom. Ende 18. Jahrhundert
