A massive sculpted limestone model of a male torso, after the Gaddi Torso A massive sculpted limestone model of a male torso, after the Gaddi Torso, 20th century, naturalistically carved overall, supported on a metal rod issuing from a rectangular section stone pedestal, 215cm overall high The marble Gaddi Torso displayed in the Classical Sculpture Room of the Uffizi Gallery in Florence is a Hellenistic work of the 2nd century BC. Its dynamic tension and unusually refined modelling almost certainly place it amongst sculptures of the Pergamene school. Formerly considered to be the torso of a satyr when it was in the Gaddi collection in Florence, the sculpture is now thought to represent a centaur straining against his bonds, a theme that was represented several times in Hellenistic art, as it was an emblem of civilized control of Man's baser nature. The torso was very likely discovered in Rome, according to Giovanni Di Pasquale and Fabrizio Paolucci. It was certainly already in the collections of the Gaddi family in the early 16th century, when Florentine artists and sculptors knew it
A set of four Continental sculpted limestone models of maidens representing... A set of four Continental sculpted limestone models of maidens representing the Four Seasons, 20th century, each figure carved from a single block, portrayed as seated on an integrally carved tapering plinth, 20th century, height overall, 250cm, the plinths 30cm wide The Four Seasons are an ancient decorative motif, where each season was represented as an allegorical figure bearing traditional iconographic symbols. The Romans typically represented the seasons as voluptuous goddesses known as the Horae as in this case. This imagery carried over into neoclassical art and later became especially popular as garden sculptural ornament. Putti became more common allegorical figures during the Renaissance and later, probably being preferred to the Horae because of their being more innocuous than the provocative goddesses of antiquity
