Origin: Egypt Circa: 200 BC to 200 AD Dimensions: 2.5" (6.4cm) high x 1.25" (3.2cm) wide Collection: Egyptian Style: Roman Period Medium: Terracotta Since the dawn of time, man has offered votives to win the benign favor of his gods. Sometimes these were perishable gifts of food, or wine, or livestock. At other times they were figures of stone, metal, or clay--votives of a more enduring nature. The art of the sculpted clay votive reached its peak in the Hellenistic age, when the artistic influence of Classical Greece spread throughout the Mediterranean and Near East. In and around Alexandria--where the Olympian gods were mixed freely with those of ancient Egypt--the temples were filled to overflowing with lively depictions of deities, royalty, and ordinary folk. As gifts to the gods, these could not be destroyed, so periodically the votives were buried in pits to make room for new offerings. When we look upon their features today--sometimes agelessly beautiful, divine, regal or aloof, sometimes comic or infinitely wise--we come face to face with the human past. - (P.1061)   « Less

Origin: Egypt Circa: 100 AD to 300 AD Collection: Egyptian Style: Roman Period Medium: Terracotta Over many centuries, the ancient culture of Egypt was exposed to many new influences, producing a fascination mix of beliefs and customs. This stunning little piece blends the age-old Egyptian desire to placate the forces of nature with the Greco-Roman traditions in art and religion. We do not doubt that we are dealing with primal, earthly powers here--very likely the crocodile god--but they have been tempered with a humanist view of the cosmos. - (PF.0143)   « Less

Origin: Egypt Circa: 200 AD to 500 AD Dimensions: 6.5" (16.5cm) high x 11" (27.9cm) wide Collection: Egyptian Style: Roman Period Medium: Textile A remarkable souvenir from the sunset of the pagan world. This beautiful weaving once served as the yoke collar for a tunic. It depicts Venus, the goddess of love, admiring her naked beauty in a hand mirror while her dancing worshipers bring her gifts of birds. Its original bright colors have faded with time, but the lively style evokes the age when Rome ruled the world. The woman who wore it in antiquity must have been very lovely indeed to risk comparison to a goddess. - (PF.0352a)   « Less
