A ROMAN MARBLE RELIEF
CIRCA 2ND-3RD CENTURY A.D.
From the left edge of a panel, perhaps the side panel of a sarcophagus, sculpted with a standing figure of Cupid, depicted nude, his body three-quarter frontal, turned to his right, his right knee bent, his head looking back, his wings upraised behind, with the feathers indicated, his loose deeply-drilled curls falling to his shoulders and pulled up in a top-knot, his hands overlapping the vertical side border, portions of the upper and lower borders preserved
31¼ in. (79.4 cm.) high
