MINERVA II.

• MINERVA II.:
Roman creation, 2nd c. AD, from a Greek Original of Classic Period.
Collezione Farnese, MANN [from Palazzo Farnese, Rome], Sala XIII:
"This statue is a reworking of a classical statue type of the 2nd half of the 5th c. BC.
The goddess is depicted with a Corinthian helm in a pose of contemplation.
Originally her right hand supported the shield that rested on the ground, and she grasped the spear in her left.
The head and arms, one of which has been lost, are restorations.
In the Palazzo Farnese the statue was located in one of the two niches of the Great Salon.
The sculpture can be dated to the 2nd c. AD."
