Item Details

Description

Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 2nd to 3rd century CE. A superb bronze figure of Jupiter - Greek Zeus - exhibiting a muscular physique as he stands dynamically in contrapposto. Shown nude, his athletic figure displays strong pectorals and delineated genitalia with a chlamys draping over his left shoulder and right forearm. Gazing forth from naturalistic eyes, his divine visage is comprised of a furrowed brow, a noble nose, and petite lips, all framed by a bushy coiffure and short beard almost resembling a lion's mane. A wreath of oak leaves crowns his head with a lengthy ribbon that extends from the back, cascading down his body. His left hand is raised, likely having previously held a scepter, while he lowers his right arm that would have grasped a thunderbolt. Size: 2.5" W x 4.3" H (6.4 cm x 10.9 cm); 4.9" H (12.4 cm) on included custom stand.

Published in Eisenberg, J. "Art of the Ancient World." Vol. XXVII, New York, 2016, no. 35.

Provenance: ex-Royal Athena Galleries; ex-Gorny & Mosch, Munich, Germany, 2015; ex-German collection
