About the Item

A beautiful white marble sculpture, characterized by a few gray veins, mounted on a black marble base with small white veins. The sculpture depicts a smiling child, his face slightly turned, half-length, dressed in a swaddling robe. The distinctive feature lies in the depiction of the face, which highlights the masterful sculptural rendering of details, including the curls of the hair, the eyes, and the mouth opening in a smile.
