This exquisite little rococo sculpture is signed by the Italian artist Giovan Battista Nini and dates back to the year 1762. Nini received his training as sculptor at the Accademia Clementina in Bologna, where he had the opportunity to work closely with the best local rococo exponents such as Donato Creti and Angelo Gabriello Piò. Sources provide an account of many of his portraits realised on various commissions, however this refined small bust of a young lady is the only work surely attributed to him nowadays.
