Jean-Léon Gérôme’s ‘Corinth’, the artist’s last sculpture, represents the spirit of the ancient city which straddled the stretch of land joining the Peloponnese to mainland Greece. Celebrated in antiquity as the birthplace of painting, sculptural portraiture and the Corinthian column capital, Corinth was also famous for the sacred prostitutes who resided in the temple of Aphrodite. The woman presented here, from her hairstyle to her facial features, is clearly a late 19th-century ‘Parisienne’. Seated upon a Corinthian capital, she represents antiquity brought to life in the form of a contemporary courtesan. This bronze, complemented with semi-precious stones, is on view in our #London galleries ahead of our 19th and 20th Century Sculpture sale on 14 December. #SothebysEuropeanArt
