Herm of a Vestal Virgin (herm; Antonio Canova (Italian, 1757 - 1822); 1821 - 1822; J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Center (Los Angeles, Los A...; 85.SA.353) | |
Note: With the discovery of the so-called House of the Vestals in Pompeii, Vestal Virgins became a popular subject in the 1700s and 1800s. This figure wears a historically accurate cloak, which suggests that Canova researched the subject. | |
