1st century BC-1st century AD and later. A silver portrait of winged Victory in profile, looking left, dressed in a short peplum, later incorporated into the base of a silvered bronze brooch. See the Boscoreale treasure in Strong, D., Greek and Roman Silver Plate, London, 1966. 11.9 grams, 29mm (1"). Property of a gentleman from Vienna; from his private collection formed since 1970. The delicate image of Victory was probably originally decorating a silver cup or vessel. The style of manufacture resembles that of Boscoreale cups, allowing a date to be established between 1st century BC and 1st century AD. The figure of Victory can be associated with the triumphal program of the first Roman emperor, exalting his victorious campaigns in East and Pannonia and the pacification of the empire.

3rd-2nd millennium BC. A head of a nobleman or prince, carved in lapis lazuli; facial features formed in a stylised but semi-realistic fashion, featuring a long thin nose, large almond-shaped eyes, delicate and sensual lips and long ears ornamented with earrings; mounted on a custom-made display stand. Cf. a similar head from Lagash in the Louvre, accession number AO 4351, representing a man with shaven head; cf. the portrait of Gudea, King of Lagash (circa 2100-2090 BC) preserved in the MET, accession number 49.26, from Girsu (modern Tello); see a male head in white limestone in Berlin, Staatliche Museen, in Moortgat, A., The Art of Ancient Mesopotamia, London, New York, 1969, figs.168, 169. 273 grams total, 18.5cm including stand (7 1/4"). Property of a Kensington lady; acquired Austria in 1993; previously in the Trimbacher collection; formerly acquired in Germany in 1980; accompanied by an archaeological expertise by Dr. Raffaele D’Amato; this lot has been checked against the Interpol Database of stolen works of art and is accompanied by AIAD certificate number no.10581-173401. This incredible statuette head presents strong similarities with the head of a statuette in Louvre, for style and shape. The similarity of the eyes and the shape of the nose with the Louvre statuette is extraordinary and, as on another statue of Ur-Ningirsu, son of King Gudea, one side of the upper lip is higher than the other side. The striking similarities with Ur-Ningirsu and with the Louvre statuette (recently identified as a possible portrait of the same person), allows for the hypothesis that our head belongs to a portrait of a royal member of the Gudea family. Another element which shows similar features with the royal family of Lagash is the tip of the nose, which appears to be rounded if seen on the front and slightly squared-off when viewed from the side. Rarely does Sumerian statuary survive with coloured pigment, but the remains of blue colouration and lapis lazuli around the eyes suggests that the head may have originally featured light blue and blue pigments around the eyes for emphasis. The baldness of the head indicates that the figure possibly represents a prince-priest. [A video of this lot can be viewed on the Timeline Auctions website] Fine condition.
Ptolemaic Period, 332-30 BC. A carved black granite head of a male with realistic features, the oblong face showing several signs of age related to the conventional Ptolemaic representation of an ageing face: the forehead deeply marked by a set of horizontal wrinkles and side of the mouth with deep grooves; the unusually large almond-shaped eyes executed asymmetrically, with the left eye smaller than the right; the short-cropped hair arranged in curls and adorned with a diadem; the reverse showing traces of an undecorated pillar; mounted on a custom-made display stand. See Bianchi, R.S., The Striding Draped Male Figure of Ptolemaic Egypt, 1978, in Herwig Maehler and Volker Michael Strocka (ed.), Das ptolemäische Ägypten.

From the private collection of a New York collector; part of his family collection since at least the early 1970s; inked collection number '93' to the reverse; thence by descent from his grandfather in 1975; accompanied by a scholarly note by Dr Alberto Maria Pollastrini. Dr Alberto Maria Pollastrini writes: 'The head was originally part of a standing statue, probably a 'striding draped male figure', a typology well attested in the corpus of Ptolemaic artistic production (Bianchi 1978, 95-102"). According to the strong similarities with the dark grey schist portrait head preserved in the Walter Art Gallery of Baltimore, Md.; no. 22.9 (W.A.G. no. 230) (Bothmer et alii 1960,153-154, pl. CIX, figs. 293-294), I can suggest a dating of the head under consideration in the 2nd century BCE.' [No Reserve] Fair condition.
