AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Head of Medusa, an iconic figure of Greek mythology, expertly carved from the fine white Carrara marble and mounted on a solid base of Levanto red marble.
The head of Medusa, with its characteristic serpents entwined among her hair, conveys a powerful sense of strength and beauty. Every detail is finely crafted, from the sinuous curls to the intense and harmonious features of the face. The base in Levanto red marble adds a striking color contrast, further highlighting the purity of the white marble.
Perfect as a decorative element in classical or modern interiors, this sculptural work is ideal for enriching living rooms, libraries, or reception spaces. Its design unites classical art with the refinement of Italian materials, making it a unique and precious piece for collectors and enthusiasts of art and culture.
A tribute to mythology and the artistic tradition, capable of telling a timeless story.
