Portrait of Antonio Canova, 1787. Additional Info: The profile view of Canova, together with the outlines of an oval and inscription CANOVA in the lower right, evoke an antique medallion. The smooth lines and harmonious compositional format convey the influence of Canova’s Neoclassical gravitas on the Irish pastelist.
