A PALMYRENE STUCCO RELIEF
CIRCA 2ND-3RD CENTURY A.D.
Preserving a bearded man in high relief, standing with his right knee raised, his head turned sharply to his left, wearing an elaborate costume and a Phrygian cap, his high-belted tunic with deeply-incised and red painted geometric patterns including concentric squares on his chest, his wide belt with scrolls, his mantle draped over his left shoulder and envelloping his bent left arm, red pigment preserved along the edge, his hair a mass of applied curls, the overhanging brow furrowed, his bulging eyes with the pupils deeply recessed, the downturned open mouth framed by a thick beard and moustache
19 in. (48.3 cm.) high
