BALDACHIN – ‘Ceremonial Canopy of Stone’
Italian Statuario Marble
From the Italian “baldacchino” this title refers to the original “brocade” that hung over an altar, throne or even a doorway. I worked on this piece of Carrara “Statuario” marble over 5 years and 156 hours. The block weighed half a ton when I started; now she weighs 130 pounds.
