A Roman Marble Relief Fragment with Mare and Foal, Roman Imperial Period, 1st - 3rd century CE Amulets - Power the modern mount expertly craftedFinely carved in high relief, this fragmentary marble panel depicts a mare lowering her head protectively toward her nursing foal. Despite the fragmentary nature of the composition, the sculptor conveyed a notable sense of tenderness and naturalism through the intimate interaction between the two animals. The grouping likely formed part of a larger decorative program, possibly from a sarcophagus frieze, funerary monument, or architectural revetment.
