“The Fata Morgana is a masterpiece within Giambologna’s oeuvre, deploying his favorite subject in marble—the female nude—to express his trademark modeling and dynamism,” the release reads. “This extraordinarily rare and internationally renowned sculpture will go on view in a dedicated gallery of the Italian Renaissance collection (117B) of the Cleveland Museum of Art on August 30.”
The artist did not create many works using marble, and this represents one of only two such works in the U.S. and one of only three outside Italy, the museum said. The other American museum housing a marble sculpture from the artist is the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. Another can be found in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. The others require a trip to Italy to be seen.
