Villanis was an Italian born sculptor in the 1800’s.  Almost all of Villanis sculptures are exclusively female.  Villanis had a few techniques which he applied to his works to really make them identifiable.  He would artistically scroll the woman’s name below her face.  He also made his woman’s faces perfect using a deep cut for the eyes which were a contrast to trying to sculpt the natural eye ball at the time. 16″H x 8″L
