Description
Gruppo in porcellana bianca raffigurante l'allegoria dell'Estate: una figura femminile con cornucopia nella mano sinistra e fascio di spighe tenuto con la destra, cui si aggrappa un putto
Historical-Criticism news
Si tratta di una delle quattro stagioni realizzate da Gaspero Bruschi a partire da sculture in avorio di Balthasar Permoser (1651-1732), serie che si trovava all'epoca presso la famiglia Ginori. Qui è raffigurata Pomona o Cerere come rappresentazione dell'Estate.
La cornucopia poteva essere utilizzata come portacandele.
Una versione policroma si conserva presso il British Museum, Londra.Si veda
