Young Greek on the Tomb of Markos Botsaris by DAVID d'Angers

Young Greek on the Tomb of Markos Botsaris

by DAVID d'Angers, Plaster model, 65 x 120 cm

David d’Angers sought to move away from classical themes. One of his most striking was the highly modern image of a naked Greek girl. This was designed for the tomb of the Greek freedom fighter Botsaris, who was killed at Missolonghi.
