Early Imperial Romain Bronze Statuette of a Dwarf Warrior from the 1st-2nd century A.D. In very good condition with an interesting dark brown patina. The dagger is broken and the blade lost.
The figurine is flat and slightly rounded. The shield-shaped outline, typical of these idols known as “schematic”, probably represents the silhouette of a seated human body, but without any volume.
Grotesque Terracotta Head (perhaps a Mime or an Actor)
This male head is cut straight under the neck. It is hollow and would have been molded in a bivalve mold. The face shows the exaggerated and archetypal features of the Greek-Roman images known as “grotesque”.
