A Renaissance Bronze by Antico

Dates: 27.2.2009 to 4.10.2009. This Spring the Wallace Collection will display an outstanding bronze of a kneeling woman by the great Renaissance sculptor Pier Jacopo Alari Bonacolsi, known as Antico (c.1460-1528). Owned by the renowned Thyssen-Bornemisza Collections, the sculpture will make a fascinating comparison with the wonderful collection of bronzes in the Wallace Collection, and can be found on display in the Porphyry Court on the lower ground floor.
