Description from the seller

Elegant bust in marble powder depicting the Roman emperor Pertinax. The sculpture presents a classical look rich in detail, with careful rendering of the beard, curly hair and the stern expression typical of imperial portraits. The face is modeled with great care, highlighting pronounced features and a gaze slightly turned upward, giving the figure a solemn presence.
The bust shows a draped garment that falls in natural folds, adding depth and realism to the composition. The surface bears a slightly antiqued patina that enhances its historical and museological aspect. The piece is mounted on a discreet and stable support, allowing a refined presentation in any setting.
It is a decorative item with a strong aesthetic impact, ideal for collectors of classical art, enthusiasts of Roman history, or for those who desire a noble and timeless décor element. Shipping will be entrusted to a professional company that will handle professional and meticulous packing, with express courier and traceable package. No reserve price.
