ROMAN BRONZE HEAD OF CROWNED VENUS
Ca. AD 200 - 300A Roman cast-bronze statuette depicting the head of a woman or goddess, perhaps Venus, the goddess of love and romance, cast via the lost wax (cire perdue) process. Her elegant countenance is composed of a petite nose, full lips, puffy cheeks flanking a rounded chin, and incised eyes which may have at one time held additional inlays of precious stones or other attractive material. A centrally-parted coiffure frames her delicate features, and a serrated fillet tops her head surmounted by a large diadem.
