Canova Heroes in Golden Niches Full Perm
Eight Classical Heroes, all as statues, and also framed in golden niches or apses. 16 textures per box, plus finished 1 prim examples.
Perfect Art for your ballroom or garden
My textures are all hand made by me. Each texture is correctly named; a contact sheet, historical information and instructions are included in each pack. Each texture takes between RL 2 hours to three days to make. I only use images which are out of copyright (one great advantage to working in Virtual Antiques!) They are sourced from image-sharing sites (eg Museums), or from my extensive RL library. 'Out of copyright' textures in their final formation of my work means that Ainee Kohime owns intellectual rights on the finished SL piece. Do not resell them as individual textures, please. You may use these textures in other VR platforms, but not for sale as individual textures.
Antonio Canova (1757 – 1822) was a Venetian sculptor who became famous for his marble sculptures that delicately rendered nude flesh. The epitome of the neoclassical style, his work marked a return to classical refinement after the theatrical excesses of baroque.
Canova relied on the study and imitation of nature. A large portion of his time was devoted to anatomy, which science was regarded by him as the secret of the art. He likewise frequented places of public amusement, where he carefully studied the expressions and attitudes of the performers. He formed a resolution, which was faithfully adhered to for several years, never to close his eyes at night without having produced some design.
Canova proceeded to Venice, and expired there at the age of nearly sixty-five. His disease was one which had affected him from an early age, caused by the continual use of carving-tools, producing a depression of the ribs. The most distinguished funeral honors were paid to his remains. His heart was interred in a marble pyramid he designed as a mausoleum for the painter Titian in the church of Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari in Venice, now a monument to the sculptor.
