After Amilcare Santini (Italian, 1910-1975) composite resin figure mounted on a stand, Venus Italian, in Neoclassical style was made on the motivations of the sculpture of the same name by Antonio Canova (Italian, 1757-1822). An original label marked, Classic Figure Sculptor A.Santini Made in Italy, under the stand. Amilcare Santini was instrumental in developing the process of combining marble, alabaster, and resin. This material is then poured into molds made by Santini, after it hardens sitting at room temperature, the figure is taken out and finished by hand. Amilcare Santini passed away in 1975 and now his son Nedo and grandson Alberto Santini are the third generation of the Santini family carrying on the tradition of producing these composite figures.
