Amphitrite with Langouste
French School, 19th Century, after Michel Anguier (1612–1686)
Marble
A finely carved marble sculpture representing Amphitrite, goddess of the sea, depicted with flowing drapery and holding a lobster, one of her marine attributes.
The work is inspired by a model by the 17th-century French sculptor Michel Anguier, a master of classical baroque sculpture.
This 19th-century French interpretation reflects the revival of mythological themes and admiration for 17th-century academic traditions.
