INKWELL IN MARBLE AND BRONZE REPRESENTING "MOSES" AFTER MICHELANGELO
2 500€
Inkwell penholder in black moulded Marble, topped by a statuette in bronze with brown patina representing "Moses" by Michelangelo.
The statue of Moses, executed around 1513-1515 for the Tomb of Julius II in St Peter's Basilica in Rome, is a masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance. The Renaissance, like the Middle Ages, was a rich source of inspiration for 19th century artists, who took great delight in imitating or interpreting the works of past centuries.
Our Inkwell has two golden bronze cups at the ends of the Marble tray, and a penholder at the front.
