Canova -- Chiesa dei Frari, Venezia

Speranza



The tomb was executed by Canova's pupils in 1827 and reproduces the sculptor's design for a monument to Tiziano.

The death of Barotoque dynamism, as of its faith, is proclaimed by the lifelessness and triviality of these figures commemorating an artist who was one of the most powerful influences in the establishment of Neo-Classicism.
