Roman Asia Minor, early 3 rd Century AD. A fragmentary marble face in three quarter profile bust of Roman god of eroticism, Cupid. The portrait shows a full cheeked boyish face with sensual features, heavy lidded open eyes and parted lips. This is an original marble profile piece, most likely from a sculpture group or frieze of figures. A very attractive piece and probably from a workshop in Asia Minor. H: 5"; W: 5". Custom made stand. From a very old English Collection. Just a great piece with much eye appeal, even with its fragmentary nature.
