Gazing upon Le tre grazie, can you sense the echoes of a grand auction? This Carrara marble masterpiece, standing almost two meters tall, once graced the halls of Viscontea Casa d’Aste. Le tre grazie, meaning “The Three Graces,” captures the elegance and poise of its namesake figures. This impressive sculpture demands attention, its smooth curves and intricate details a testament to the sculptor, Salvatore Piume’s skill. The sculpture’s base, adding another half meter to its height, further emphasizes its grandeur. Imagine the scene at the auction, the hushed anticipation as bidders vied for ownership of this magnificent piece. While the auction records show it remained unsold at the listed estimate of 24,000 to 30,000 euros, the beauty and artistry of Le tre grazie are undeniable. Its presence here today speaks to its enduring value, a timeless piece of art that transcends monetary worth.
