The replica is in marble
Author: Antonio Canova (1757-1822)
The original masterpiece, in white Carrara marble, is located in the Staatliche Museen in Berlin, Germany.
Antonio Canova was a Venetian sculptor who became famous for his marble sculptures that delicately rendered nude or draped flesh.
Between his preferred subjects there were “ the dancers”, light and elegant shapes carved in pure white Carrara marbles. His dancers were represented in groups, in separated couples or as single delicate dancer in her classic light movings.
The Dancer with Cymbals, which was born as a couple with another similar subject, the Dancer with Castanets, was carved between 1809 and 1814.
