Pair, Grand Tour Style Ceaser Augustus & Roman Soldier Bronze & Marble Figures

About the Item

This striking pair of bronze figures, rendered in the Grand Tour style, represents Caesar Augustus and a Roman soldier, embodying the classical ideals and grandeur of ancient Rome. Each figure is cast in bronze, showcasing attention to detail in their attire, posture, and expressions, capturing the dignity and power associated with their roles. Caesar Augustus is depicted in his iconic pose, wearing a traditional Roman toga and holding a torch, a symbol of governance and wisdom. His regal demeanor is accentuated by the finely detailed drapery and lifelike proportions of the bronze casting. The accompanying Roman Soldier stands in a commanding stance, adorned in traditional armor, including a crested helmet, a cuirass, and a shield raised above his head. The detailed rendering of his weaponry and attire highlights the skill of the sculptor in capturing the martial strength and discipline of Rome’s military might. Each figure is mounted on a solid stepped marble base, providing stability and a sense of timeless elegance. The rich veining of the marble complements the dark patina of the bronze, creating a harmonious contrast that enhances the overall presentation. Inspired by the fascination with antiquity during the 19th-century Grand Tour period, these figures are a testament to the enduring legacy of Roman art and culture. Perfect for a library, study, or collection of classical décor, this pair combines historical significance with exceptional craftsmanship. Measures: 9.25" h x 2.875" w
