Efes mus Roman ivory chest

I love carved ivory. The Romans made great things with it, and here are some examples. The light was very artificial and I over-corrected probably. But see the detail.

other sizes: small medium large original

For any use: see my Profile. NOTE: Many of my pictures are in sub-galleries (some within another, their name is in bold print)!

Wonderful carvings. Great to be able to see them in the detail you've gotten for us. I especially like the artist's capturing of the loose shirt tops, as careless as the wearing of them today in casual atmospheres.
