Questo soggetto di gusto ancora rocaille deriva da un’invenzione del pittore Stefano Tofanelli (Nave\/Lucca 1752 \u2013 Marlia\/Lucca 1812)1, a pendant di Cupido in atto di scoccare la freccia sempre dell’artista lucchese, che fu tradotta a bulino dall’incisore Giovanni Folo (Bassano 1764 \u2013 Roma 1836) negli anni 1800-1801. Il modellatore traduce nelle tre dimensioni dello spazio l’incisione di Folo in un oggetto che sembra essere stato concepito come una prova unica: non sono infatti note, almeno per il momento, altre versioni di questo soggetto. L’argilla dal colore bianco latteo nella quale la nostra piccola figura \u00e8 stata plasmata, pi\u00f9 comunemente chiamata terraglia, ci rimanda alla manifattura allestita alla fine del Settecento a Roma dall’incisore e ceramista Giovanni Volpato, al secolo Trevisan (Angarano 1735- Roma 1803), a cui andr\u00e0 senza alcun dubbio riferita l’opera qui presentata.<\/p>\n
