Carrara marble sculpture of the godness Chloris, 19th century

Of great sensuality, this white Carrara marble statue depicts Chloris, nude, the goddess of flowers and springtime renewal. Crafted in the 19th century, it embodies all the mastery of neoclassical sculpture with timeless grace. Her delicate face conveys freshness and youth, while her languid—erotic—pose radiates an undeniable sensuality. The refined execution of the trailing garland of flowers reveals the artist’s virtuosity, where every detail has been carefully carved to capture the softness of the forms and bring this young goddess to life.

The sculpture is of an impressive size and is elevated by a fluted griotte marble base that enhances its presence. Carrara marble, prized since antiquity for its purity and luminosity, gives the work an almost ethereal quality: light glides across its polished surfaces, highlighting the subtlety of its volumes. The figure of Chloris, associated with fertility and floral beauty, lends a powerful symbolic aura, evoking the rebirth of nature and the eternity of artistic creation.

This exceptional piece, both decorative and patrimonial, will easily find its place in a refined interior: atop a commode, in an entrance hall, or in a conservatory, where it can fully express its poetry. A true testament to 19th-century taste and elegance, it represents a rare opportunity for connoisseurs of fine art and antique sculpture.
