High Quality Marble Modesty Corradini Sculpture For Naples Decoration

The sculpture “Modesty” was completed in 1752 by the Venetian sculptor Anthony Corradini, who had already enjoyed a reputation in Europe at that time.Missing the mother is not only the sole meaning of this sculpture. The veiled woman can also be interpreted as a symbol of “wisdom”, or is considered to be the veiled Isis, the goddess of creation.

Together with “Jesus in a Veil” and “Awakening”, Corradini’s “Humility” constitutes “the most artistic and outstanding sculpture” in the San Severo Chapel. This point has been unanimously judged by all tourists, tour guides, and art historians who have come here since the 18th century.

The sculpture uses the veil to elegantly shape the body of the woman wrapped in it, as if the steam in the aromatherapy makes the veil damp and adhere to the skin. The rose around the waist highlights the nobleness of the woman. Staring at this work will make people forget the passage of time. The broken inscription symbolizes the shortness of life and also expresses Prince Raymond’s pain as a son. He hopes to preserve the image of his young mother forever.
