<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mirana, post: 6653820, member: 79705&quot;]There are precious few sites available anymore with actual substance and scholarship so I&#039;m very grateful every time I find someone still willing to get knowledge out there. I did register some time ago (the Clytie article is certainly a good reason to do so!) but I&#039;m guessing it ended up looking like a spam bot since I tend to put very little in my registrations. I&#039;ve just applied again with this name.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m so glad you like her as much as I do. I&#039;ve gone over every inch of her with a loupe and investigated every scratch, but she has no signatures or marks. I&#039;ve taken to interrogating other carvings looking for similarities in style hahaaa. I try not to get invested in things I can&#039;t prove, but after I got more familiar with the time period that the Clytie bust was all the rage I too was surprised that her findings were later. The one in the British Museum is 1850s I think. I can&#039;t imagine why someone would leave her unmounted for so long, but maybe she had another mount?</p><p><br /></p><p>I LOVE all your Clyties. Seeing them all it&#039;s so interesting to see where different artists made different decisions on her look. That mount is especially fun and well made. Is it Etruscan Revival? I&#039;m such a sucker for those.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
