Statuette with an Inscribed Dedication to the Etruscan God Lur in the Getty Villa, June 2016
Title: Statuette of a Man inscribed with a Dedication to the Etruscan God Lur
Artist/Maker: Unknown
Culture: Etruscan
Place: Etruria (Place created)
Date: 300–280 B.C.
Medium: Bronze
Object Number: 96.AB.37
Dimensions: 31.6 × 13 × 13 cm (12 7/16 × 5 1/8 × 5 1/8 in.)
Inscription(s): Inscription: Votive inscription, in Etruscan, engraved on mantle in two parts, the first running along its edge from the left wrist to the corner of the garment below: "Vel Matunas". The second part follows the slanting folds of the drapery at the back, with the last three letters written in boustrophedon in order to avoid a patch near the right buttock: "turce lur:mitla : cvera" Translation: "Vel Matlnas dedicated [this] to Lurmita as a gift."
Alternate Titles: Statuette of a Man with a Dedication to Lur (Display Title)
Object Type: Male figures
This votive statuette of a youthful male figure wears a short semi-circular mantle draped around his waist and over the left shoulder and arm. Both arms are bent, and the right raised a little from the body. His hands, which are large but delicately modeled, are spread in a gesture of supplication for a divine omen or prayer. Deep folds on the right side of the neck emphasize the turn of the head upward and to the right. The face and hair are well modeled, with large, deep-set eyes, with iris and pupil indicated, under a furrowed brow. He has broad cheeks and full, fleshy lips. The hair, which covers the ears, is parted in the center and ends in sickle-shaped clusters of short striated locks, of which a symmetrical pair rises prominently above the center of the forehead. The expression of the face and the studied twist of the head are clearly inspired by portraits of Alexander the Great. A votive inscription, in Etruscan, is engraved on the mantle in two parts, the first running along its edge from the left wrist to the corner of the garment below: "Vel Matlnas". The second part follows the slanting folds of the drapery at the back, with the last three letters written in boustrophedon in order to avoid a patch near the right buttock: "turce lur : mitla : cvera" Translation: "Vel [alternatively Lel or Lar] Matunas dedicated" and "precious of sacred gift to Lur".
