# Young Girl from the Environs of Rome [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [CORDIER, Charles-Henri-Joseph]() - Date: 1801-1850 - Technique: Tinted white marble, height 80 cm ## Commentary This marble bust represents a girl from the lands surrounding Rome, the Campagna. Characteristic of the artist's greatest works, the marble has been enlivened with the added dimension of polychromy. However, in contrast to the dazzling polychromed sculptures for which Cordier became most famous, here he has subtly tinted the marble. ## Related artworks - [African Venus]() - [African Venus]() - [La Capresse des Colonies]() - [La Capresse des Colonies \(The Goat Tender of the Colonies\)]() - [La Juivre d'Alger \(detail\)]() - [La Juivre d'Alger \(The Jewish Woman of Algiers\)]() - [La Juivre d'Alger \(The Jewish Woman of Algiers\)]() - [Love One Another]() - [Negro of the Sudan]() - [Said Abdullah of the Mayac, Kingdom of the Darfur \(Sudan\)]() - [Young Abyssinian Woman]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
