New Statuette




















I just received a small statue of Julius Caesar (above). The detail is good--the boots, pteruges and other features are impressive.

















Note the eagle emblem on the breastplate and staff. The eagle was the symbol of ancient Rome.
Unlike others for sale, this statuette is not colored. I prefer the white version, as it looks stunning near the table lamp.
By now I have a fairly good collection of sculptures or art objects, besides dinosaur figures.
Previously I obtained sculptures of Augustus Caesar who, with Julius, marked the end of the Roman Republic.
