Introduction to Dying Slave Sculpture
This famous Dying Slave statue was created between 1513 and 1516 and is a sculpture by the Italian Renaissance artist Michelangelo. The statue suggests the moment when life succumbs to the relentless force of death. The Dying Slave statue replica in the Trevi factory is a perfect reproduction of the original.
Trevi’s Dying Slave Statue Replica Show
Our factory has carefully reproduced and carved Michelangelo’s Dying Slave statue, a work of great artistic and historical value. This sculpture, created by Michelangelo and originally intended to be used as a tombstone, shows a slave’s struggle and abandonment at the moment of death, reflecting the human desire for freedom and the helplessness of life. Using high-quality marble materials, our statues perfectly show the emotional expression and detail precision of the original through fine hand engraving.
Origin of Dying Slave Statue in Louvre
Michelangelo carved this approximately 230 cm high sculpture of The Dying Slave from marble in 1513. The original is now in the Louvre Museum in Paris.
This work was designed to decorate the funeral monument of Pope Julius II who, in 1505, commissioned Michelangelo to create the entire tomb.
The original design for the sculptural complex was never completed. Michelangelo donated the Dying Slave and the Rebellious Slave to a Florentine, Roberto Strozzi, in gratitude for the generous hospitality he received in Strozzi’s Roman home during his illnesses of 1544 and 1546.
