AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Professional academic sculpture, completely handmade by professional artisans. A piece from a museum plaster cast collection. The workmanship has very ancient origins and is carried out by artists in the sculptural sector, made with materials such as scagliola and Carrara marble powder.

Nero was a Roman emperor from 54 to 68 AD. The last of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, he is known for his controversial rule, marked by luxury, excesses, and repression. During his reign, the great fire of Rome occurred in 64 AD, for which he was accused, although his responsibility remains uncertain. He loved the arts and performed in public, which was frowned upon at the time. He died by suicide after being declared a public enemy by the Senate.

It is noted that the object is removable from the base.
