EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating marble sculpture titled "Pauline Bonaparte, Princess Borghese as Venus Triumphant" is a masterpiece created by the renowned artist Antonio Canova between 1805 and 1808. This exquisite artwork can be found in the Galleria Borghese in Rome, Italy. In this stunning portrayal, Pauline Bonaparte, the beloved sister of Napoleon Bonaparte, assumes the role of Venus, the Roman goddess of love and beauty. With her half-nude figure draped in flowing fabric and reclining on a luxurious bed adorned with cushions, she exudes an air of elegance and sensuality. Her mesmerizing gaze captures our attention as she leans gracefully against a French Empire-style headboard. A single apple rests delicately beside her hand—a symbol often associated with Venus—adding to the allure and mythological significance of the piece. Canova's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this neoclassical sculpture. From Pauline's intricate hairstyle adorned with a bandeau to her serene expression that radiates timeless beauty, each element contributes to creating an ethereal representation of Aphrodite herself. This artwork not only showcases Canova's extraordinary talent but also serves as a testament to Pauline Bonaparte's enchanting presence during her lifetime. As we admire this remarkable print captured by Bridgeman Images, we are transported back in time to witness the divine grace and allure embodied by both artist and subject alike.
