Description
We tend to forget how brightly colored statues in the Ancient World were. The bare marble classically-inspired statues of the renaissance were based on a misunderstanding of the available Greek and Roman antique 'models' in this regard.
This is a lovely example of a reconstruction based on scientific analysis of the original—a warrior's head from the Temple of the mother-goddess, Aphaia, on the Greek island of Aigina.
