    Fell in love with this alabaster and resin figure at an estate sale over the weekend. There were many Bianchi pieces but this was the largest at almost 12" tall by 8" wide and 6" deep. I believe this to be from the 1970's. It is very heavy at 9 1/2 LBS. From my research there is some connection to Goldscheider and Gino Ruggeri. An identical smaller bust sold on eBay on 4/3/23 but not much infomation in the listing.

    Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    The internet says she based on the famous Madonna painted by Lippi.
