Description

Ca. 200-300 AD A pair of beautiful, life-size marble statues of nude children representing Harpocrates, the god of silence and secrecy, each represented elegantly standing on a plinth - one hand resting on a pillar surmounted by a pot, the other arm holding a cornucopia. The oval face framed by long, wavy hair, lotus flower to the top of the head. The gods are depicted with a youthful face, the roundness of his features exemplifying the child-like quality. He is depicted with a rounded chin and large, deep-set, almond eyes. See Daremberg & Saglio, Dictionnaire des Antiquités Grecques et Romaines, Paris, 1873-1917; see Jashemski, W.J., The gardens of Pompeii: Herculaneum and the villas destroyed by Vesuvius, II volumes, New York, 1979.
