Torso of a Draped Goddess Wall Sculpture

Only the most accomplished sculptors in history can create art displaying the idealized contours of the human body draped with such sheer fabric that the beauty of both textures are realized. Since Praxiteles put his hand to the first life-sized female nude statues in the 4th century B.C.E., this revolutionary portrayal has been envied. While the relaxed pose and urbane nonchalance of this idealized figure is derived from a Greek model, the technique is distinctly Roman. And although her legs and arms are missing, most likely broken in antiquity, her shoulder curve suggests she may have been adjusting her hair. Our Design Toscano-exclusive work of art is cast in fiberglass-reinforced, quality designer resin with a faux stone finish to replicate ancient originals.
