Palmyra, bust of a youthful priest, 1st- 2nd Century AD.    A limestone bust from a Palmyrene funerary relief; half length, carved with a youthful beardless man with almond shaped eyes and small, down-turned mouth; wearing a sleeved tunic with braided edges and groups of comb-pattern bars at the joined seams; over this a chlamys secured on the right shoulder by a rosette shaped brooch. The hair brushed forward in a series of locks, wreath acrossthe head with star shaped element to the centre. Holding in his left hand a sceptre or fold of cloth.For a discussion on Palmyrene funerary customs see: Toynbee, J. Death and Burial in the Roman World, London, 1971, pp. 223-234. The oasis city of Palmyra is located half way between the Persian Gulf and the Mediterranean,being strategically placed between the Roman and Parthian empires. It was also ideally located to monopolize on trade coming along the Silk Road, as well as from the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea, and by the first century BC it became the principle centre for merchants bringing their goods fromEast and West, to exchange them and then return home, with the result of this trade leading to Palmyra becoming an extremely wealthy city. This wealth was displayed in the magnificent architecture that adorned the city. The wealth of the inhabitants can be seen from the funerary reliefs, where individuals are depicted wearing costly robes and jewellery. Reliefs, such as this example, were made to adorn family vaults. Many of the vaults consisted ofvertical rows of burial compartments; each compartment contained a stone box sealed by a carved stone that depicted the deceased and often carried an Aramaic inscription giving the subjects name and genealogy. These gravestones suggest the vivid presence of the deceased, whose image, with itsdirect, frontal posture, engages the viewer.Palmyra's art and architecture is unique in the Roman world, and the cultures of East and West meetand fuse into a distinctive and fascinating style.15.8cm High.Ex.
