Lena & The Swan
59ʺW × 9ʺD × 45ʺH
This exceptional fireplace surround is carved from a single selection of pure-white Carrara marble, celebrated for its fine grain and luminous, velvet-like finish. The frieze showcases a virtuoso relief of Leda and the Swan, where the sculptor has utilized the stone’s unique density to achieve breathtaking detail in the plumage and anatomical grace.
The cool, crisp temperament of the Carrara provides a perfect canvas for the Neoclassical 'Story of the Swans,' making this not merely a mantel, but a piece of architectural sculpture. Preserved in remarkable condition, it represents the pinnacle of Italian stone-craft from the height of the Romantic era
