🏛️ THE HISTORY OF THE MASTERPIECE

Completed in 1793, Psyche Revived by Cupid’s Kiss is universally regarded as one of Antonio Canova’s greatest achievements and one of the defining masterpieces of the Neoclassical movement.

Inspired by the myth of Cupid and Psyche from Apuleius’ Metamorphoses (The Golden Ass), the sculpture captures the precise instant when Cupid revives Psyche with a kiss after she falls into an enchanted sleep.

The original marble sculpture is celebrated worldwide for its extraordinary composition, delicate movement and breathtaking technical mastery, making it one of the most admired sculptures ever created.

Today, original versions of this masterpiece can be admired in prestigious museums such as The Louvre Museum in Paris and The State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg.

🟫 MATERIAL INFORMATION

🛠️ This sculpture is made of solid high-density professional resin filled with museum-grade and prosthetic-quality materials, the same type used in museums, cinema, theatre and cultural institutions worldwide.

❌ We do NOT use:

• ❌ Plaster (too fragile)
• ❌ Mineral-based mixes like stone powder composites (which lose definition)
• ❌ Consumer plastics or similar lightweight materials (which reduce both quality and weight)

✅ We specifically choose this professional resin for its:

• 💎 Durability
• 🧬 Precision
• 🖐️ Ability to capture every fine detail — veins, folds, facial expressions — with a level of fidelity that traditional materials simply cannot match.

🏛️ This is the same professional-grade resin used in official tactile replicas for blind and visually impaired visitors in public exhibitions.

📌 We want every collector to be fully informed and confident about their choice.

All images of our products correspond to the actual finish of our sculptures. Know exactly what you are buying, as many stores use generic renders or manufacturer images that do not represent the actual finish of the product they deliver.

📌 IMPORTANT NOTE

Every sculpture is individually handcrafted.
