This is one of a series of travel bugs made to recognize art works seen and admired by the bug owner. A digital photo of this sculpture was downloaded from the internet. The copy was reduced in size and proportions cropped to accommodate the laminating materials available to the owner. Regrettably these processes diminish the effort of the artist. One truly must see the original in person to fully appreciate the work. The text below is a mixture of my own observations and material gleaned from the internet (mostly Wikipedia and Web Gallery).
This funerary Stele (Stèle funéraire de Pietro Stecchini) is attributed to Rinaldo Rinaldi (1793-1873), an Italian neoclassical sculptor. He was born in Padua, studied in Venice and later Rome, with Canova. In October 2012 we saw the most famous art in the Louvre, Mona Lisa, Winged Victory, Venus de Milo and much more. However, I photographed and lingered longer at this and several other lesser-known works.
