1. Introduction of Youth Statue
Francesco Mochi (1580–1654) was a prominent Italian Baroque sculptor, born in Montevalchi, Tuscany. He received his early artistic training in Florence before moving to Rome, where he studied under the sculptor Camillo Mariani. His representative works include Saint Veronica and Equestrian Statue of Alessandro Farnese, Duke of Farnese. Bust of a Youth, created around 1630–1640, is now in the Art Institute of Chicago. This Youth Statue, sculpted from white marble, depicts the head, shoulders, and part of the chest of a young man.
The boy has delicate features, a full forehead, a straight nose, and his eyes look to the side. His lips are slightly parted, as if he is about to speak. His head is covered with thick, spiraling curls of hair, with the curls at the forehead flipping outwards and layers of hair overlapping on the sides and back. The figure’s head is turned to one side, with the neck naturally extended. A large piece of cloth is draped over the shoulders, the garments overlapping diagonally in front of the chest, sculpted with folds of varying depths. The lower edge of the Youth Statue features an irregular truncated design, making it suitable for display in art galleries, classical-style interior spaces, and marble sculpture collections. Arturban Sculpture can customize various bust sculptures. Welcome to contact us for more details.
