AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

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

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

Note that the object is removable from the base.
