About the sculpture
This statuette seems to be a worked-up model for stone sculpture and may represent Actaeon, or possibly, Ganymede. The closest analogies for its style are from the Wolfgang Auwera / Peter Wagner workshop at Würzburg in the period 1750-65. The Viennese character of the head type and the relatively consequential musculature are consistent with the training of both Auwera (1708-1756) and Wagner (1730-1809) at the Academy of Vienna. The figure is distinct from the plumper and more rustic rococo of Dietz and also from the neo-classical turn of Wagner's later work.
