The Release from Deception,”

Carved from a single block of marble, it depicts a

fisherman being released from netting by an angel,

allegorical to the man being liberated from his sins.

So intricate was the work that 18th-century

philosopher Giangiuseppe Origlia described it as “the

last and most trying test to which sculpture in marble

can aspire.”

Queirolo worked alone on his magnum opus, without

an assistant or even a workshop. Even other sculptors

refused to touch the delicate net in case it broke into

pieces in their hands.

The masterpiece is housed at the Sansevero Chapel in

Naples, with several other miracles of marble. Namely,

“The Veiled Christ" (1753) by Giuseppe Sanmartino

and "The Veiled Truth" (1750) by Antonio Corradini.

Francesco Queirolo (1752-1759)
