Roman Matron Statue, 1st Century BCE, Discovered in Ancient Rome, Exemplifies Pudicitia. This Marble Masterpiece Now Sits in the Musée du Cinquantenaire in Brussels, Belgium, Captured with Stunning Detail Using RealityCapture Technology. This statue showcases a traditional depiction of a woman, influenced by Hellenistic art and embodying the concept of pudicitia - modesty. Originally placed on a tomb along one of Rome's major routes, it now stands as a poignant funeral portrait. Although some restoration work has been done to repair the lower face and nose, the statue remains an awe-inspiring testament to ancient Roman artistry.
