19th Large Marble Bust Eros Of Centocelle Roman Workshop

€4,600.00

Large marble bust of Eros, known as the Eros of Centocelle, white marble, Roman workshop, second half of the 19th century.

The bust is based on the original discovered in 1770 in Rome near Centocelle on the Via Labicana and acquired by Pope Clement XIV. Today, it is in the Hall of Busts and Statues of the Vatican Museums. The statue of Eros is one of the best-preserved works, a Roman reproduction dating back to the 2nd century AD.

Eros is depicted with delicate, sensual features and a thoughtful, melancholic expression; his head, slightly bowed to the side, lets his thick, curly hair fall to his shoulders. The sculpture is made of white Carrara marble, finely carved to highlight the young man’s hair.

In excellent condition, it has never undergone restoration. It stands on a mottled marble base.
