Fayum Mummy Portraits, dating from around 30 BC to the mid 3rd century AD.
The portrait heads were attached to Egyptian mummies of the Roman period, covering the faces of the deceased In the top pictures, you can see now they were bound to the mummy. Dating from the time of the Roman occupation of Egypt, they are closest to Graeco-Roman artistic traditions. Around 900 are known to survive and they are some of the only surviving evidence of Classical panel painting traditions. Due to their burial in hot, dry conditions with the bodies, many have survived in excellent condition.
The term Fayum comes from an area of graveyards (necropoli) where they were found in large numbers, buried in communal catacombs.
Painted on wooden board (and sometimes on cloth), either in encaustic (wax) or egg tempera.

Roman Venus Statue 1st century A.D., Marble
“Throughout antiquity, Venus, goddess of love, was the most famous subject for female nudes. Judged the most beautiful of all deities, Venus, according to poets, was born from the sea foam and floated to shore on a scallop shell moved by gentle breezes. In this famous pose, Venus appears with the drapery of her mantle knotted in place and arranging her hair with upraised arms.
Like so many works from antiquity, this statue exists in a damaged state without head or arms. Stylistic differences suggest that the drapery and torso may have belonged to different statues. Creating composite antiquities was common in earlier times. Despite the losses, these fragments suggest the sensual quality and perfection of form attributed to the goddess of love.” https://www.instagram.com/p/CXMwqu1lWU6/?utm_medium=tumblr
