About Group of three women in the palace of the Villa Borghese

The artwork, titled “Group of three women in the palace of the Villa Borghese,” is created by Giovanni Battista Piranesi and belongs to the Neoclassicism art movement. This design piece features three women depicted in a classical manner, representative of the era’s aesthetic values and style.

The composition showcases two sculptural groups, each consisting of three nude female figures positioned around a central column. The women are rendered in a highly detailed and realistic style, emphasizing their anatomical precision. They are shown standing on a circular base adorned with classical motifs, holding up what appears to be an architectural element. The inscription at the top dedicates the piece to Signor Pietro Traille, a captain in the Royal Regiment of Artillery, reflecting the artist’s social connections and respect for patrons of the arts. The overall presentation of the artwork exemplifies the elegance and refinement associated with Neoclassicism.
