Euphrosyne Classical Sculpture rd22015-jj069

Our collectable dolls house miniature sculpture is inspired by Antonio Cavona's neo-classical marble original which portrays the three beautiful daughters of Jupiter. These sisters presided over feasting, dance, and joyful occations, Thalia (youth & beauty), Euphrosyne (mirth), and Aglaia (elegance)

The original, commissioned in 1814 and completed in 1817, was once housed in the grounds of Woburn Abbey in Bedfordshire, England, and is now displayed in the Victoria and Albert museum in London. Canova a similar earlier sculpture for Empress Joesephine of France, which is now in the Hermitage museum in St. Petersburg, Russia.
