Published Anatolian Marble Idol - Troy Type

Item Details

Description

Ancient Asia Minor, Anatolia, Early Bronze Age I-II, ca. 3200 to 2300 BCE. A finely-preserved sculpture, hand-carved from chalky-white marble, depicting a highly-abstract standing anthropomorphic figure. The rounded lower body tapers to a pair of lightly-incised striations which delineate the neck, and a characteristically oversized head boasts shallow drilled eyes, incised brows, and a stylized nose. Votive idols like this one are known in a variety of fascinating forms throughout the pre-literate world and were not bound by the constraints of naturalism. Troy-type idols like this are among some of the rarest forms to come from ancient Anatolia, and this example is of no exception. Size: 2.2" W x 4" H (5.6 cm x 10.2 cm); 4.9" H (12.4 cm) on included custom stand.

Published in "Beloved by Time: Four Millennia of Ancient Art." Fortuna Fine Arts, Ltd., New York, 2000, p. 24, fig. 43.
