"Plaster Head Of Hygieia On A Marble Base, Greece, 20th Century"
Sculpture of Hygieia, Greece, 20th century. Elegant head of the goddess Hygieia, finely modeled in patinated plaster, created in the 20th-century Greek Neoclassical tradition. The hair, rendered with particular refinement, reveals meticulous handwork, confirmed by the presence of an original metal seal affixed to the back of the head, bearing the inscription “Hand Made in Greece.” The work rests on a square base of black veined marble, whose natural contrasts emphasize the purity of its forms. A small chip is present on one corner of the marble, without affecting the stability or the overall appearance of the piece. Dimensions: Total height: 29 cm; Length: 16 cm; Depth: 19 cm; Base: 9 × 9 cm; Weight: 3.112 kg. This sculpture, both decorative and imbued with classicism, is an attractive collector's item, ideal for an interior that blends antiques and contemporary design.
