Putto

Ferdinand Tietz

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture depicts a cherub or putto with a light-skinned complexion and curly blonde hair, wearing a gold headband and a gold loincloth. The putto has rosy cheeks and is barefoot, with the left leg bent at the knee and raised. The left arm is outstretched, holding a gold-colored object resembling a heart, while the right arm is bent at the elbow with the hand raised. The background of the image transitions from dark to light gray. The overall style of the sculpture is reminiscent of Baroque art. Ferdinand Tietz is the creator of "Putto".
