A CIRCULAR CARVED MARBLE PORTRAIT PROFILE RELIEF OF JOHN GIBSON
Est: $1,590 - $2,385
Attributed to Harriet Hosmer (1830-1908), circa 1866 Signed below the truncation 'J. GIBSON. ROME. OBIT 27 JANY. 1866'; in a circular giltwood frame; with a paper label to the reverse inscribed 'John Gibson sculptor Rome modeled by himself C...marble by B.E. Spence presented by him/to...Lister... SEPT...'. Minor losses to gilding. 12 5/8 in. (32 cm.) diam. NOTES John Gibson (1790-1866), originally British, lived primarily in Rome and was one of the most prominent figures of the Anglo-Roman neo-classical school. In the 1850s, Gibson took on the American sculptor Harriet Hosmer, who coined the famous phrase about Gibson, 'he is a god in his studio but God help him out of it.' Over the course of his life and after his death, a number of portrait busts and medallions of Gibson were executed by his colleagues and admirers. There is a portrait roundel by Gibson's student Harriet Hosmer, currently in the National Portrait Gallery, which is almost identical to the present roundel and the portrait roundel on Gibson's grave stele in Rome, thus suggesting that this roundel is also by her. The hand-written label on the back of the present roundel suggests in fact that it was done by Benjamin Edward Spence, however it is likely that this is an erroneous postscript.

JOHN GIBSON (BRITISH, 1790-1866) BUST OF A NYMPH
Est: -
White marble, on socle 53 cm (20 3/4 in) high overall John Gibson, the leading English neo-classical sculptor in Rome and a pupil of both Canova and Thorvaldsen, referred to these works as his "fancy busts". He often took the compositions from his most successful full-length statues, or made original designs to create refined sculptures for private collectors visiting his studio. The present bust of a Nymph relates closely to the Nymph untying her Sandal (1831), one of Gibson's most important early commissions, made for the Earl of Yarborough and exhibited at the Royal Academy. In this bust, however, Gibson has significantly changed the formation of the hair. Other examples in this genre are his bust of a Naiad from the group of Hylas and the Naiads, Tate Gallery, and the bust of Aurora from the statue in the National Museum of Wales. Gibson admired the ideal heads of Canova and wrote: "there is a dignity in the female heads of the antique but in Canova a sweet tender loveliness is the most predominant (feature); in the antique the edges of the nose are more sharp, Canova softens that part like nature". "Ideal" and "fancy" busts were made by many of the leading nineteenth century sculptors in Rome including Pietro Tenerani, R.J. Wyatt and Hiram Powers. The Nymph combines classical imagery and detailing - particularly the hair-style - with soft, child-like features that would have appealed to Victorian patrons. Other versions are in the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool and the Henry Huntingdon Library and Art Gallery, California.
