EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the terracotta sculpture titled "Death Crowning Innocence" by Mary Watts. Measuring 24x15 cm, this delicate artwork is held in a private collection and beautifully presented in its original Italiante frame. The photograph, taken by eChristies Images, captures every intricate detail of this neoclassical masterpiece. The sculpture depicts an allegorical scene where Death gently places a crown upon the head of Innocence. With wings spread wide and draped in polychrome painted robes, Death personifies both care and age while tenderly interacting with the young child symbolizing innocence. This poignant representation of life's fleeting nature is further emphasized by the architectural elements surrounding them. Mary Watts skillfully captures the essence of childhood through her masterful use of ceramic artistry. The winged figure adds a touch of ethereal beauty to this neo-classical piece, evoking emotions that transcend time. Displayed within its Italianate frame, this 19th-century artwork serves as a reminder that youth and innocence are fragile qualities deserving our utmost protection. Its profound message resonates with viewers as they contemplate the passage from life to death and reflect on their own mortality. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly captured this remarkable work for all to appreciate and admire without any commercial intentions.
