Sobre a escultura
Roman gods and goddesses were popular subjects for sculpture, as they could be shown nude. Their elongated yet muscular bodies demonstrate the elegance of the Mannerist style.
Their poses highlight the interest in complicated compositions shared by both artists and patrons. This statuette depicts Neptune, the God of water and the sea in Roman mythology.
