This marble is a copy of Antonio Canova's magnum opus The Three Graces which depicts the nymphs Aglaia, Euphrosyne and Thalia - the three daughters of Zeus and the sea nymph Euronyme, as well as the handmaidens of Venus and companions of Apollo. Respectively, they represented elegance, mirth and youth, and beauty or the three phases of love: Beauty, arousing Desire, leading to Fulfilment.
