Le Ore Danzanti

Project Name: Le Ore danzanti
Location: Turkey
Client: Private client
Completion Date: 30th January 2026
Material: Bianco P Marble
Finishing & Installation: Hand finishing
Project Category: Marble carving – Fine Art

Le Ore Danzanti — “The Dancing Hours” — is a faithful reproduction of the celebrated neoclassical sculpture originally conceived by the Italian master Carlo Finelli in 1824. Finelli, one of the most gifted disciples of the great Antonio Canova, created the original as a testament to grace, movement, and the fleeting beauty of time. That work has since found its permanent home among the treasures of the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, where it remains one of the collection’s most admired pieces.

Commissioned by a private client and completed in January 2026, this reproduction was executed entirely in Bianco P Marble — a material whose luminous white tone and fine crystalline grain make it ideally suited to capturing the delicate folds, flowing forms, and ethereal lightness that define Finelli’s vision. Every surface was finished entirely by hand, honoring the same traditions of craftsmanship that shaped the original nearly two centuries ago.

Three white marble statues of women in flowing dresses stand close together. One faces forward with her arm raised, another looks to the side, and the third is seen mostly from the back. The lighting highlights their detailed features.
Two intricately detailed marble statues of women dance together, arms gracefully raised, with delicate textured folds on their dresses and serene expressions.

The result is more than a copy. It is a dialogue between past and present — a work that carries the spirit of 19th-century neoclassicism into a contemporary private space, rendered with the precision, reverence, and artistry that only true stone carving mastery can achieve.

Three marble statues of ballet dancers stand on a circular pedestal, each wearing delicate ballet shoes and sheer, flowing dresses, with legs and feet in elegant poses.
Three marble statues of women in short dresses stand close together in a graceful pose atop a pedestal, with their arms intertwined. They are displayed in a dim, industrial setting with other sculptures in the background.
Two marble statues of young women in flowing dresses pose with raised arms, appearing to dance. Soft light highlights their delicate features against a dark background.
