478 William Couper (American, 1853-1942)
478
Tennyson’s Princess, 1882 Incised signature “Wm. Couper” on the base reverse. Carved Carrara marble, approximately 29 x 20 x 12 in. (73.7 x 50.8 x 30.5 cm), mounted to a carved marble socle and set upon a carved wood and velvet-upholstered column. Condition: Minor loss to base, minor surface imperfections. Provenance: Through a private Boston collection. N.B. The sculpture depicts Princess Ida, the central character of Alfred, Lord Tennyson’s 1847 poem, The Princess: A Medley. Ida believes that women are superior to men, and chooses to establish a women’s college over accepting a prince’s hand in marriage. Ida’s headstrong independence is no match for fate, however, and through a comedy of errors, Ida marries the prince that she was betrothed to at birth. While the poem’s ending was conventional for its time, it was still among the first to engage with the debate over equal rights for women in Britain, as championed by Mary Wollstonecraft in the late 18th century. Another example of this sculpture is in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum. $9,000-12,000 478A European School, 19th Century Portrait of a Lady with Grapes and Peaches Signed and dated “Louise de ...ia 1862” l.r.
