Antonio Canova,Cupid & Psyche - a photo on Flickriver

            The metal pins inserted over the surface assisted the sculptor in transferring the form of the complex group from the plaster to the block of marble from which the sculpture was carved.Canova made two slightly different versions of this composition.The first commissioned by a Briton was later acquired by Napoleon's brother in law and is more in the Musée du Louvre,Paris.The second for which this full scale model was prepared was made Prince Nicholas Youssoupov and is now in the Hermitage,Saint Petersburg.The plaster was inherited by Canova's assistant Adamo Tadolini who used it to replicate additional groups-the MET
