19th Century Hand Carved Ludovic Gavioli Organ Figure
Located in London, GB
19th Century Hand Carved Ludovic Gavioli Organ Figure
Quite simply, she is beautiful and graceful. This amazing example of a late 19th century hand carved sectioned pine organ figure was produced by the world-renowned Ludovic Gavioli. The detail and expression on her face is what makes this example so delightful, an air of beauty and lifelike appeal in her expression. Personally, we have seen a few figures by Gavioli in the past but this one is special. The detail is of the finest quality and the late 19th century was most certainly when Gavioli produced some of his finest work.
Giacomo Gavioli (1786-1875) was considered the greatest of all band organ...
