Item Details

A 1 to 1 scale plaster reproduction of the three reliefs from the famous Ludovisi Throne, located in the Archaeological Museum of Palazzo Altemps, Rome. 460-450 BC circa.


The throne has a pleasing patina from age, dating of the piece to be from the 2nd quarter of the 20th century based on the discolouration of the plaster and wooden armature.


Likely produced for a museum or the like.


Some age related knocks and abrasions, a good sized chip to the larger central panel on the bottom right.


The left side depicts the naked girl (hetera-ierodula) playing the diaulos, right side depicts a vestal burning incense and the larger front panel depicts the birth of Aphrodite from the sea.


Each section has steel hanging slots so can be wall hung, the piece also will sit together like the original throne.


two smaller panels 85/69/7cm
the larger 143/69/7.5cm
