Nydia, the Blind Flower Girl of Pompeii
by Randolph Rogers

Carrara marble
1861
Nydia, the Blind Flower Girl of Pompeii by Randolph Rogers Carrara marble 1861 University of Michigan Museum of Art "’Nydia, the Blind Flower Girl of Pompeii’ was the most popular American sculpture of the nineteenth century. According to Rogers, it was replicated 167 times in two sizes. The subject was drawn from "The Last Days of Pompeii" (1834), a widely read novel by Lord Edward Bulwer-Lytton, which ends with the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in a.d. 79. Rogers’s evocative portrayal of Nydia highlights her heroic attempt to lead two companions out of the burning, ash-covered city. Her closed eyes and staff allude to her blindness, while the hand raised to her ear refers to her acute sense of hearing. The destruction of Pompeii is symbolized by the broken Corinthian capital beside her right foot.” — MET Museum © 2025 EYE OF KAY CAMERA: FUJIFILM GFX100S II LENS: FUJIFILM GF50MM, F3.5 R #corinthians #neoclassical #art #pompeii #statues #fujifilm #photography

Proserpine
by Hiram Powers

Modeled 1844: cut 1847
Seravezza marble
Proserpine by Hiram Powers Modeled 1844: cut 1847 Seravezza marble University of Michigan Museum of Art “The ancient Roman myth of Proserpine (or Persephone), the subject of this bust, accounts for the origins of the seasons. It tells of how the beautiful daughter of Ceres, the goddess of agriculture, was abducted by Pluto, the lord of the underworld. Ceres was so distraught at her daughter's absence that the earth ceased to be fruitful. Eventually Pluto allowed Proserpine to visit her grieving mother for six months of every year, during which time her mourning ceased and the earth bloomed. When Proserpine returned to Pluto, her mother's grieving was renewed and the world was again dark. The refinement of the features and the delicate translucency of the finish of Prosperine give it both a compelling psychological presence and a lifelike softness. Powers was both a master of the techniques of sculpture and an innovator of the materials and tools of sculpting. He developed a process for finishing the surface of his marble sculptures that gave them the likeness of living flesh. This was a hallmark of his work, one for which he received much public and critical acclaim. Powers was a very successful sculptor, and his exquisite rendition of Proserpine was one of his most popular busts; he made several versions of it, from which more than one hundred replicas were cut.” © 2025 EYE OF KAY CAMERA: FUJIFILM GFX100S II LENS: FUJIFILM GF50MM, F3.5 R #classical #neoclassical #art #sculpture #fujifilm #photography

France (Savigny), 12th century
Relief panel with the Lamb of God
University of Michigan Art Museum
Artist unknown France (Savigny), 12th century Relief panel with the Lamb of God (Agnus Dei) ca. 1133-66 Limestone Lent by Dumbarton Oaks, Washington D.C. Location: University of Michigan Art Museum No ordinary sheep, this lamb holds a cross in its right foreleg and a halo with a cross hovers behind its head, revealing that it represents Jesus as the sacrificial lamb of God, or Agnus Dei. This symbol was inspired by John the Baptist, who exclaimed upon seeing Jesus, "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world" (John 12:9). Plants sprout from the base of the cross and clusters of leaves appear at the intersection of the arms of the cross in the lamb's halo, alluding to the Christian belief that the dead wood of the cross sprang to life when Jesus was crucified on it. This event foreshadowed Jesus's resurrection. While the original context of this sculpture is unknown, similar twelfth-century sculptures of the Agnus Dei decorate church doorways in France and Italy. 🇫🇷🇮🇹 Camera: FUJIFILM GFX 100S II LENS: FUJIFILM GF 50MM F3.5 R
