Plaster Cast of Male Right Foot Wearing a Sandal

Attributed to From: D. Brucciani & Co (London)

RA Collection: Art

The Royal Academy probably purchased it from Domenico Brucciani & Co, a firm that manufactured casts for art schools and museums. The firm had a large catalogue of casts, including architectural reliefs, natural history subjects and full-size figures after the Antique which were supplied to art schools for students to draw from.

This cast of a foot is possibly from a statue of the god Hermes.
