Description from the seller

Resin and stone bust depicting Neptune (Poseidon)

This bust represents Neptune (Poseidon in Greek mythology), the powerful god of the sea, earthquakes, and horses. His classical iconography includes the distinctive flowing beard and curly hair that symbolize the sea waves. Sculptural representations of Neptune have been popular since antiquity, with renewed interest during the Renaissance and the neoclassical period, when they became essential decorative elements in European aristocratic homes.

These decorative busts in resin and stone are particularly valued by enthusiasts of classical mythology, collectors of decorative art, interior designers seeking statement pieces with neoclassical inspiration, and anyone wishing to add a touch of classical elegance to living spaces. Their appeal lies in their accessibility compared with pure marble sculptures, while still maintaining a refined aesthetic and a nod to Greco-Roman culture. They represent a decorative choice that blends history, mythology, and contemporary design.
