EDITORS COMMENTS
This bronze finial, dating back to the 1st - 2nd century AD, transports us to ancient Rome. Standing at a height of 8.8 cm, this intricate piece showcases the remarkable craftsmanship of Roman metalwork. The finial depicts a togate magistrate with an unexpected twist – a horse's head. The magistrate stands amidst acanthus leaves, his gaze angled down and to the right. In his left hand, he holds a rotulus while his right arm hangs by his side. The figure is mounted on a tall cylindrical spiral-fluted shaft adorned with zigzag and beaded moldings. As we examine this unique sculpture, we are reminded of the important role magistrates played in ancient Roman society. They were responsible for upholding justice and maintaining order within their communities. The inclusion of the horse's head adds an intriguing element to this artwork, blurring boundaries between human and animal forms. This zoomorphic representation symbolizes strength and power associated with horses in Roman culture. With its detailed craftsmanship and historical significance, this finial serves as both a testament to ancient artistry and an insight into the social structure of classical Rome. It is truly a remarkable addition to any collection or display that celebrates our rich cultural heritage.
