About the Item

Pair of Signed "Goddess of Abundance" Bookends Attributed to Pompeian Bronze. Vintage pair of electroformed bronze bookends signed M Rotellini, circa 1915. The set is in good vintage condition and each bookend measures approximately 4.75"W x 4.25"D x 7.5"H. A very beautiful set! #4884RM The Roman Goddess of Abundance was a popular symbol in the Victorian Era. Here she is shown half naked and sitting with a sheaf of wheat on her right and her cornucopia, a magical enormous goat's horn filled with fruit and wealth, on the left. Her nudity was not considered offensive during this period. Afterall, she was a Goddess!
