A ROMAN SOFT STONE HEAD OF A FEMALE DEITY, 2ND - 3RD CENTURY A.D.

Finely carved head of a female deity, sculpted from a soft stone. The piece features delicately rendered facial features, including softly arched brows, almond-shaped eyes, and gently flowing hair, all indicative of the classical Roman style. The soft stone, with its warm tones and subtle variations, adds to the lifelike quality of the sculpture, making it a compelling representation of divinity.


The head likely once formed part of a larger statue or a significant votive object, and its craftsmanship suggests it was created to inspire devotion and reverence.
