| Description |
In all likelihood, Canova executed the two plaster reliefs Feed the Hungry and Teach the Ignorant for Abbondio Rezzonico, who hung them in an area set aside for a school he created——to educate children from the "lower-classes." Great emphasis is given in the bas-relief——to the figure of the woman who is offering bread to a little girl, while holding her son in her arms, which would appear to be, a tribute to Raphael. The bas-relief was reproduced in an engraving by, Antonio Banzo (engraver) and Giovanni Demin (draughtsman): copperplate etching retouched with burin; 300 x 278 mm. Regarding the Rezzonico bas-reliefs, see entry for Justice. |
