Roccatagliata" s Amor

A patinated bronze figure of an angel with a bow, depicted standing and walking, holding a bow in his hand that rests on the ground, with his quiver resting symmetrically on his back.
The figure’s circular movement is accentuated by his left arm, which wraps around his torso, thus creating the sinuous form characteristic of late Venetian Mannerism.
The casting and original patina of this bronze indicate high quality; despite the object’s small size, it is closely associated with the Master’s work.
