Executed in solid Carrara marble and carved fully in the round, the figure was once part of a larger sculptural grouping, likely devotional or commemorative in purpose. Now mounted on a custom Lucite base for stability and display, the bust was acquired directly from a private collection in Naples , underscoring its authentic provenance and regional significance . A poignant and refined example of ancient Roman sculpture , it embodies both the emotional realism and artistic legacy of the late classical world. Sculpture size: 7" H x 5.25" W x 6.5" D. Dimensions: 17.5in. Height x 5.5in. Width x 6.5in. Depth Materials: Carrara Marble, Lucite Place of Origin: Italy Period: 5th Century C.E.
