Item Details

Description

**First Time At Auction**

Rome, Imperial Period, ca. 3rd century CE. A fine earthenware visage of a female, seemingly mold-pressed but with hand modeled and incised details as well. Note the meticulously delineated, centrally parted hairdo, that penetrating stare from her wide open eyes, her naturalistic nose, and slightly parted lips. Although this piece would have been brightly painted, it persists as a lovely rendering with traces of russet pigment remaining. Size: 3.25" H (8.3 cm); 3.875" H (9.8 cm) on included custom stand.

Provenance: acquired from England in 1965; purportedly excavated at Aldborogh, Yorkshire, about 1960. Aldborough was the center of the Romanized Brigantes, the largest tribe in Britain in that period.

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.

A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany all winning bids.

We ship worldwide to most countries and handle all shipping in-house for your convenience.

#125563

Condition

A section with a repaired break on the lower right. Normal surface wear with earthen encrustation and pigment loss - though traces of russet pigment have survived, and the visage is still vivid.
