Pensabene refers to this as an example of Corinzio Asiatico ("Asiatic Corinthian," Scavi di Ostia VII, cat. no. 333). The lobes of the individual acanthus leaves are sharply-cut, almost prismatic in layout. Height: 87 cm Material: imported Pentelic marble (column shaft is of green-veined cipollino).
