Ancient Marble Statue Fragment Greco - Roman Venus




Item History & Price

Information:
Reference Number: Avaluer:12096Material: Marble
Original Description:
A marble statue fragment (torso) of a nude female, likely a Venus figure.  The figure is approximately 5.24" in overall height (not including the base).  With the base, the height is approximately 8".  The nude figure includes the right knee up to the waist above the  belly button, which is visible.  The surface is patinated and weathered.  The figure's left side exhibits at least one point of broken connection with another element--perhaps clothing or an ...companion figure.  The right leg also exhibits an irregularity or bump that may have been another connection or some other element associated with the female.  The rear is well formed and the buttocks are distinct, showing that the figure was free-standing and in the round.  The statue is rather crudely affixed to a hardwood base.  It is unclear whether it is pinned to the base and glued, or merely glued.  The piece is from the old inventory of the long defunct Helios Antiquities of Baltimore and was part of a group of items acquired from George Mauro in the 1980s.  The statue fragment is probably Greco-Roman, perhaps 2nd-4th century, and likely comes from Syria.  A good, authentic piece that is affordable as sculpture goes.Please ask if questions.
