Marble head of Athena. Culture: Greek. Dimensions: H. 19 in. (48.26 cm). Date: ca. 200 B.C..The dynamic movement and passionate expression of this colossal head mark it as a rare example of monumental art from the late third to the second century B.C., when an exaggerated baroque style prevailed in some areas of the Mediterranean. The goddess originally wore a helmet of marble or bronze, added separately. The ears are pierced for metal earrings. The head comes from an over-life-sized statue that possibly represented the goddess striding forward. The statue may have stood outdoors, as a monumental votive image of the warrior goddess in her role as protectress of a city rather than within a temple as a cult statue.

Dimensions: Overall (confirmed): H. 31 1/2 x W. 30 7/8 x D. 12 in. (80 x 78.4 x 30.5 cm);Overall (height with socle): 37 3/4 in. (95.9 cm). Date: 1539-40.In 1534, in rivalry with Michelangelo, Baccio Bandinelli carved the colossal Hercules and Cacus, a marble group that confronted the older sculptor's famous David (finished in 1504) on the Piazza della Signoria in Florence. With their stiff postures and lapidary precision, the figures of Bandinelli's group could not compete in grace and power with Michelangelo's youth. Over the years, Bandinelli created a unique, even idiosyncratic, Mannerist style (the style prevalent in Italy after the 1520s) and achieved considerable success, yet constantly strove to emerge from Michelangelo's shadow, and his competitive zeal intensified a tendency to exaggeration in his work.

After the eighteen-year-old Cosimo de Medici became duke of Florence in 1537, the sculptor found increasing favor in his native city as well as in Rome. Through ducal patronage, he was supported in such major projects as the tombs of the Medici

Portrait Head of a Youth 14 CE-68 CE Roman Empire. In the Roman world, portraits were often recarved in order to alter the sculptureís function, meaning, or identity. It is possible that this portrait head was altered at a later date because it includes features associated with different periods. The manís hairstyle, with locks of hair neatly arranged across the forehead, recalls those worn by men during the Julio-Claudian dynasty (27 BCñAD 68) and again during the reign of the emperor Trajan (reigned AD 98ñ117). However, the drill marks in his large eyes were likely added at a later date, perhaps even centuries later, when the recarving of portraits became a much more common practice due to shortages of marble.. marble .
