About the Item
A superb collection of 6 antique plaster models after the ancient 6th century BC Parthenon Frieze. Supplied loose, these mini friezes are presented in a wooden tray and mounted on a bespoke steel stand for display.
The Parthenon Frieze
Believed to date from 447 – 432 BC, the Parthenon Frieze is a continuous marble band that once decorated the Parthenon temple, Greece.
Dedicated to the goddess Athena, the temple was abundant with decorative sculpture considered some high points of classical Greek art. The frieze, which encircled the upper part of the main temple within the outer colonnade, detailed the procession toward Acropolis during the Great Panathenaea, the festival in honour of Athena.
Of the 160m of the original frieze, 128m survives, the majority of which can be found in the British Museum and the Acropolis Museum, Athens.
