Lucius Verus at The Scottish National Gallery Scotland

Experience the timeless elegance of “Lucius Verus,” a remarkable replica that captures the essence of Roman artistry. This exquisite sculpture, meticulously crafted from high-quality resin, showcases a stunning marble and bronze effect through a detailed patina finish. Inspired by Albacini’s original plaster work, which is based on a classical marble statue once housed in the Villa Borghese and now residing in the Louvre, this piece reflects the rich historical narrative of a co-Emperor of Rome.

Lucius Verus, who ruled alongside the renowned Marcus Aurelius from AD 161 to 169, is depicted with an air of both nobility and vulnerability. Unlike his adoptive twin, Verus is characterized by his self-indulgent nature and struggles with governance, making this sculpture a fascinating representation of the complexities of leadership in ancient Rome.

Perfect for art enthusiasts and collectors alike, this sculpture not only serves as a stunning decorative piece but also as a conversation starter, inviting admiration for its craftsmanship and the stories of the past it embodies. Add this unique work of art to your collection and celebrate the legacy of classical heritage in your home.
