The Three Graces, after the Antique Marble Group in the Galleria Borghese, Rome
Copying antique statues was a standard way for artists to learn their craft during the 18th century and beyond. Here Liotard takes the process a step further, bringing this famous white marble group to life by depicting the Graces in colour and placing them in a landscape.
