ROMAN BRONZE WINGED GORGONEION
ROMAN BRONZE WINGED GORGONEION APPLIQUE - MEDUSA?Roman, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 2nd century CE. An elegant and excellently preserved bronze applique featuring a gorgoneion - the head of a woman with hair of venomous snakes - with a garland encircling her chin, snakes knotted below, and wings protruding from the tangle of serpents piled atop her head. Known for transforming her viewers to stone by her gaze alone, here she is depicted with huge, striking eyes that stare straight forward, confronting the viewer. Gorgoneions were believed to hold apotropaic powers that could fend off evil and bad luck and thus were worn as pendants and used to adorn everything from chariots to tombs. This gorgoneion may be intended to represent Medusa, most famous of the gorgons. Size: 2" W x 2.9" H (5.1 cm x 7.4 cm)
Provenance: East Coast collection, New York Gallery, New York City, New York, USA, acquired before 2010
