Exhibition of the work: 1877, Naples, Menestrello and Diavoletto, marble group.
History of the work: A series of casts is made around the theme of the minstrel around the 1880s, executed in bronze from this period onwards, most probably in the Pandiani foundry, of which Antonio is also the director
Comments:
This is a particularly qualitative and very neat cast by A.Pandiani which bears neither signature, stamp nor foundry stamp, which is unusual in view of the edition of the sculptor's bronzes, usually stamped "A. PANDIANI MILANO" with sometimes a date
Could it be the artist's model, or a model chef? In any case, it is a particularly closely watched cast (perhaps the sculptor's most accomplished as we observe slight variations for each comparable of this bust on the Art market)
Other elements of analysis, such as the fact that the bust is not signed, that it is of better quality of execution than comparable examples on the market and of very slightly larger dimensions, and that it has an unusual assembly (visible screws) allowing the disassembly of the sculpture (perhaps for taking impressions to edit variants in particular), point us in one of these two hypotheses
