Antique 19th Century Italian Grand Tour Siena Marble Model of a Sarcophagus
About the Item
A Magnificent Antique 19th Century Italian Grand Tour Hand-Carved Siena Marble Model of a Sarcophagus on a Black Marble Base. This gorgeous grand tour piece is modeled after the Fontane della Piazza Farnese, twin fountains located outside the Palazo Farnese in Rome, Italy. The shape of this marble bath is reminiscent of the ancient Roman baths of Caracalla. Ancient Egypt and Rome saw the use of sarcophagi as ritual baths. Neoclassical Italian furnishings evoke the sense of auspicious spirituality that originated in Ancient Rome. The sarcophagus as a source of mystical, inexplicable powers is an idea that grew from archeology during the medieval period. Recalling the supernatural ideology of the past, the production of this tub signifies the impact of ancient religion on subsequent societal generations.
