The Funerary Monument of Maria Christina of Austria
The Viennese painter and printmaker Karl Agricola reproduced Canova’s monument for Maria Christina in six etchings. The last sheet depicts the sculpted girl with a torch entering the tomb. As the viewer, we see her as though we were actually in the tomb ourselves; a visual invention worthy of Canova.
