Adorable Roman Bronze Harpocrates w/ Cornucopia

Item Details

Description

Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. A finely cast bronze Harpocrates - the god of silence, secrets, and confidentiality - with his finger pressed to his lips, standing in contrapposto with weight shifted to his right leg and his left knee bent, nude save a panther skin (nebris) over his body - tied in a reef knot on his left shoulder, and holding a bountiful cornucopia (horn of plenty) in his left hand. His visage is finely detailed with delicate features and framed by a wavy coiffure with curls over his forehead, ears, and neck. Size: 4.125" H (10.5 cm); 4.875" H (12.4 cm) on included custom stand.

This Harpocrates type and pose continued to be popular throughout the ages, inspiring sculptures of all sizes throughout the ages. See a larger bronze of Harpocrates by the 17th c.
