Lorenzo Bartolini | Faith in God / Fiducia in Dio, 1835

Lorenzo Bartolini's "Fiducia in Dio" is the artist's best-known work and, more generally, is emblematic of Italian sculpture in the generation after Canova. The model recalls Canova's Mary Magdalen, but the nude is more indebted to the observation of nature than the influence of the antique. It typifies the move towards a softer Neo-classicism which made way for Romanticism in Italian sculpture.
