Item Details

Description

Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 2nd century CE. A handsome, realistic marble head of a youth with a close-cropped wavy/curled coiffure framing a handsome face with attractive features such as generously lidded, almond-shaped, eyes, arched brows leading to his nose, closed full lips, a defined chin, and well-modeled naturalistic facial planes. The classicizing features and treatment of the eyes suggest that the head is from the Julio-Claudian Period. The verso is not carved in the round, suggesting that this piece is a high-relief. A wonderful piece of sculpture from ancient Rome! Size: 7.25" W x 10.625" H (18.4 cm x 27 cm); 14.75" H (37.5 cm) on included custom stand.
