Solid bronze sculpture of Lo Spinario as displayed in the Palazzo dei Conservatori, Musei Capitolini.

Boy with Thorn, also called Fedele (Fedelino) or Spinario, is a Greco-Roman Hellenistic bronze sculpture of a boy withdrawing a thorn from the sole of his foot.

The sculpture was one of the very few Roman bronzes that was never lost to sight. The work was standing outside the Lateran Palace when the Navarrese rabbi Benjamin of Tudela saw it in the 1160s and identified it as Absalom, who "was without blemish from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.

It was noted around 1200 by the English visitor, Magister Gregorius, who noted in his De mirabilibus urbis Romae that it was ridiculously thought to be Priapus. It must have been one of the sculptures transferred to the Palazzo dei Conservatori by Pope Sixtus IV in the 1470s, though it is not recorded there until 1499–1500.

No scratches, cracks, chipping or dents. In an excellent condition.
Signed "bronze reproduction" on the back.
Please see the photos for an accurate impression of this lot.

Leuke Boeddha ontvangen. Goed verpakt en snel verzonden. Kleur brons lijkt af te wijken van de foto’s, maar dat is schijn.

Wat jammer dat u niet tevreden bent over de aankoop en dat u de lolly als extraatje niet kunt waarderen. Als u wilt mag u de schaal eventueel retour sturen.
