MEYRING, Heinrich
(b. ca. 1638, Westfalen, d. 1723, Venezia)

Holy Family

c. 1700
Marble
Scalzi, Venice

This group is sculpted in a measured and elegant manner, less common in other works of Meyring's late period, with soft effects in the chiaroscuro passages, skilful rendering of detail, and, in some cases, light use of the drill.
