Twee terracotta sculpturen van Apollo en een halfnaakte vrouw before 1857

This photograph, taken before 1857 by Marcel Gustave Laverdet, depicts two terracotta sculptures. The sculptures are positioned one above the other against a dark background, showcasing their form with clarity. The upper sculpture, possibly Apollo, is standing with his arms crossed. The lower sculpture, possibly a woman, is semi-nude and is holding a lyre. The figures appear to be classical in style and represent a typical subject matter of ancient Greek art. The photographic print, with its subtle tonal variations, highlights the detail of the terracotta sculptures.
