Lucius Aurelius Verus was Roman Emperor from 161 until his death in 169. This head fragment is from a very large portrait bust or statue of Lucius Verus. There is a lion-like majesty to this portrait, which in no way suggests that he is an idle, dissolute ruler. This is typical Antony style, using ornate diamond ornaments in the hair and sculpted eyes to dramatize the basic naturalistic image.

The most attractive thing about this marble bust is the curly hair of Lucius Verus. Dramatic curly hair with strong light and shade effects was a popular hairstyle for men at that time, but it needs a lot of carving technique as a basis to carve it out one by one and conform to the reality.
Such lines can not only bring people a great sense of visual enjoyment, but at the same time, when they realize that it is originally just a piece of marble, they will feel a greater shock.
The Rape of Proserpina is a large marble group statue by Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini.

Berninis attention to realism is evident in the anatomical features of the artwork, where we can see that as Plutos hands grasp Proserpinas thighs, his fingers seem to sink into her fragile flesh. Also, when he tries to control her, the muscles in his arms will protrude, giving people a sense of the strength of human muscles.

Among common stone materials, only marble has a slight translucency, comparable to human skin. It is this translucency that gives marble statue visual depth beyond its surface and, when used in figurative works, evokes a certain realism. Certain types of marble also have the advantage of being relatively soft when first mined and easy to work, refine and polish. This translucent effect of marble makes some famous marble statues appear almost alive.
