"Abel Defeated" is a notable marble sculpture created by the Italian artist Giovanni Duprè in 1842. This work is a significant example of 19th-century Italian sculpture, reflecting the neoclassical style that was prevalent during the period. Giovanni Duprè, born in Siena in 1817, was a prominent sculptor whose works often depicted religious and mythological themes with a high degree of emotional intensity and technical precision.

The sculpture portrays the biblical figure Abel, the son of Adam and Eve, who was slain by his brother Cain out of jealousy. Duprè's depiction of Abel captures the moment after his death, emphasizing the tragic and poignant nature of the scene. The figure of Abel is rendered with remarkable anatomical accuracy and a lifelike quality that demonstrates Duprè's mastery of marble as a medium. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the delicate rendering of Abel's muscles, the gentle fall of his limbs, and the serene expression on his face, which contrasts with the violence of his death.

"Abel Defeated" was well-received by contemporary critics and audiences, who praised Duprè for his ability to convey deep emotion and for his technical skill. The sculpture helped to establish Duprè's reputation as one of the leading sculptors of his time. It also reflects the broader artistic trends of the 19th century, which saw a renewed interest in classical themes and forms, combined with a Romantic emphasis on individual emotion and expression.

Today, "Abel Defeated" is considered an important work in the history of Italian sculpture. It is often studied for its artistic and historical significance, as well as for its representation of the neoclassical style and its influence on subsequent generations of artists. The sculpture remains a testament to Giovanni Duprè's talent and his contribution to the art of sculpture.
