King 1750 - 1799

"King" is a 18th-century sculpture by Nicola Ingaldi, a prominent Italian artist of the Neoclassical period. This intricately detailed figure, crafted from terracotta and adorned with textiles, depicts a regal figure dressed in lavish attire, complete with a turban and a richly embroidered cloak. The sculpture's realistic portrayal of the king's attire and expression contributes to its enduring appeal and historical significance.
