The Harpy Celaeno at The Kelvingrove Museum Glasgow

Introducing our exquisite replica of “The Harpy Celaeno,” a stunning piece inspired by the original sculpture housed in the Kelvingrove Museum in Glasgow. This captivating work brings to life Celaeno, one of the legendary Harpies from Greek mythology, who was famously mentioned in Homer’s Iliad and further explored in Virgil’s Aeneid. Here, Celaeno is depicted as a powerful figure, embodying both beauty and mystery, as she delivers prophecies to Aeneas at the Strophades, the mythical home of the Harpies.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this bust is a tribute to Mary Pownall, the talented British sculptor who created the original in 1902. Pownall, who drew inspiration from her own likeness, infused this piece with her artistic vision, honed through studies in Frankfurt, Paris—where she was mentored by the renowned Auguste Rodin—and Rome. Despite the passage of time, her work stands as a testament to the enduring allure of classical art.

Our replica is expertly crafted from high-quality resin and features a stunning patina effect that mimics the timeless elegance of marble and bronze. This piece not only serves as a beautiful decorative item for your home but also as a conversation starter that connects you with the rich tapestry of art history.

Embrace the spirit of classical heritage with “The Harpy Celaeno,” a masterpiece that captures the essence of mythology and craftsmanship, perfect for art enthusiasts and collectors alike.
