Fabulous finding ! probably the best work by this important Benezit Listed Artist " The Proposal" , it is amazing to watch the incredible expression achieved by Adolfo Cipriani (1895-1930), the Lady really seems to be thinking about the proposal, while the Young Gentleman, has just finished to talk, Cipriani captured in a piece of stone , the feeling of the exact second after the proposal ! ,this is the difference between an normal sculptor and a Great Master !! . and is probably the reason this artist reached $40K at Sotheby?s N.Y last April 25th, lot 69, with the 31,2inches H piece ,"A nymph with a butterfly" , a beautiful but single character piece ! This one is a sculpture group !!! similar good size of 29 inches H, and is in my opinion at least as good as the Nymph with butterfly ,if not still better . IT is under (professional) restoration, a feet and a finger were broken, and needed cleaning, as you see in pictures, this is not unusual for such piece after 100 years, and is not affecting the overall quality of this sculpture , Fabulous piece and very good investment too..
