- Lot Description
Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 2nd to 3rd century CE. A finely carved white marble sculpture of the draped female, perhaps a Muse or Venus (Greek Aphrodite) - the goddess of romantic love, who is depicted in the round and draped with a flowing chiton, the folds of which are visible between her legs, and a himation flowing over it and enveloping her body. She stands with her curvaceous right hip swayed outward and left bent leg, the voluminous folds of her diaphanous garment cascading over her figure, her feet peeking out from the hemline, her right hand held across her chest, her left arm along her side - all upon an integral hemispheric base with a two-line Greek inscription, suggesting that the piece was dedicated to fulfill a vow. The sculptor of this piece delineated this beautiful female form with the utmost sensitivity and skill. Size: 5.125" W x 11.5" H (13 cm x 29.2 cm)
Provenance: private East Coast, USA collection; ex-Gorny and Mosch, Munich, Kunst der Antike #124 (May 27, 2003, lot 367); ex-private German collection, acquired in the 1990s
