About the Item

A striking 19th-century marble sculpture of an eagle, carved from beautifully veined grey-and-black Carrara (white) marble ,a fine Italian marble known for its quality and natural contrast. The feathers are smoothly and delicately carved, and the eagle is fitted with vivid orange glass eyes that give it a lifelike presence. It stands on a solid stone-carved base that complements the figure perfectly. This is a rare and highly unusual sculpture, with few, if any, known matching examples. The piece has great character and displays both charm and craftsmanship. Symbolism of the Eagle Across many cultures, the eagle is a longstanding symbol of power, freedom, and sharp vision. Its commanding stance and keen gaze make it a natural emblem of strength and authority.
