| Description |
This charming face, with slightly puffed-out
cheeks, resembles classical images of the
winds blowing upon the earth. It originally
formed the base of a curving handle on a jug
or ewer, a superb example of the Roman
attention to detail. Though we do not have
the rest of the vessel, this delightful fragment
evokes it grace and beauty in our minds.
