A NEO-SUMERIAN DIORITE FIGURE OF GUDEA, SOUTHERN MESOPOTAMIA, CIRCA 2200-2100 BC Expert's note:The Akkadian Empire lasted roughly from the 24th to the late 22nd century BC, collapsing around 2154 BC, likely under pressure from internal instability and incursions traditionally associated with the Gutians. In the decades that followed, southern Mesopotamia was divided among competing city-states before the political consolidation under the Third Dynasty of Ur (Ur III).The city-state of Lagash flourished during this Neo-Sumerian revival. Under Gudea (ca. 2144-2124 BC, slightly earlier than traditionally cited) and his successor Ur-Ningirsu II, Lagash produced an extraordinary corpus of royal statuary as well as extensive Sumerian hymns and dedicatory inscriptions.Unlike the preceding Akkadian art, which favored heightened naturalism and dynastic power imagery (as seen in works like the Victory Stele of Naram-Sin), Neo-Sumerian sculpture is marked by compact volumes and an atmosphere of devotional introspection.The present sculpture belongs to the celebrated series of hard-stone (primarily diorite) statues commissioned by Gudea. These were installed in temples throughout Lagash as perpetual votive surrogates, intended to represent the ruler in continuous prayer before the gods, especially Ningirsu.The figure seated atop a modest throne, his bare feet planted firmly on the platform while his hands are outstretched, wearing a voluminous robe which falls elegantly down his stout figure in U-form folds. The gently rounded face with wide almond-shaped eyes under arched brows, a narrow nose, and gently pursed lips forming a kind smile, flanked by alert ears, the head covered by a plain scarf that falls down the back to the nape of the neck.Provenance: From a private collection in Bergamo, Italy. Leonardo Vigorelli, Bergamo, Italy, acquired from the above. Leonardo Vigorelli, a retired Italian art dealer and renowned collector, once specialized in African and ancient Hindu-Buddhist art. With a background in anthropology and decades of travel and field research across India, the Himalayas, Southeast Asia, and Africa, he founded the prestigious Dalton Somaré art gallery in Milan, now managed by his two sons.Condition: Good condition with expected wear, minor obvious losses, signs of weathering and erosion, encrustations, structural fissures, old repairs, small chips, nicks, scratches.Weight: 3.3 kg Dimensions: Height 20 cmLiterature comparison:Compare a closely related Neo-Sumerian diorite statue of Gudea, dated c. 2090 BC, 44 cm high, in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, object number 59.2.
