About the Item

A captivating Roman marble head of a Goddess, possibly Venus, dating from the 1st–3rd century AD, exquisitely carved and presented on a bespoke marble pedestal styled as a classical column top. The delicate features and serene expression epitomize the timeless beauty celebrated in Roman interpretations of the goddess of love. Minor historic wear, including a small chip to the nose, adds character and authenticity without diminishing its refined presence. Measuring 11.5 × 10.5 cm, this intimate sculpture is perfectly scaled for display in a cabinet of curiosities, on a side table, or as the center piece of a curated collection. Its elegant proportions and classical charm make it a standout acquisition for collectors of antiquities or connoisseurs of fine decorative art. Official export documentation, issued by the Government Historical Monuments Office, is included.
