Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

Reduction in patinated bronze with high-relief decoration of the Monument to Dante, with glass top to form a pedestal table.

The Monument to Dante, a sculpture dedicated to Dante Alighieri, is today located in Trento and was created by Italian artist Cesare Zocchi (1851-1922). It is considered a symbol of the Italian language (especially in a region that was then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire).

The project took 5 years to complete

There are several levels to our pedestal: Paradise with figures representing Beatrice and a frieze of angels, then below is the Purgatory level: Sordel meets Virgil and Dante, the representation of Pride and the fishermen in Hell.

The original monument is surmounted by a full-length statue of Dante, holding the Divine Comedy to his chest.

The base, in good condition, is composed of several parts and topped by a beveled glass top (age-related wear).

Height: 75cm (with glass)
Glass diameter: 70cm
Base: 48 x 48cm
