Description from the seller

Medusa's head, an iconic figure of Greek mythology, expertly carved in the precious white Carrara marble and placed on a solid base of Levanto red marble. The head of Medusa, with its characteristic serpents intertwined among the hair, conveys a powerful sense of strength and beauty. Every detail is finely worked, 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 classic or modern interiors, this sculptural work is ideal for enriching living rooms, libraries, or representative spaces. Its design unites classical art with the refinement of Italian materials, making it a unique and precious piece for collectors and art and culture enthusiasts. A tribute to mythology and to artistic tradition, able to tell a timeless story.
