Wildly popular when they were discovered in the 17th century, the centaurs were the subject of a number of reproductions in the decades and centuries that followed. While most examples of these figures on the market today are bronze reductions, this pair is an exceptionally rare 19th-century Italian creation crafted from outstanding white marble. They are almost certainly objects from the Grand Tour, though in another testament to their rarity, these stately centaurs are larger than typical Grand Tour souvenirs.
