Gilded Bronze Mirror with the Three Graces in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, December 2008
Gilded Bronze Mirror with the Three Graces
Roman, mid-2nd century AD
Accession # 1987.11.1
This mirror belongs to the same group as the adjacent one with Europa and the Bull (1978.11.4). The Three Graces were eminently suitable subject matter for a toilet article such as a mirror. However, they had a wider appeal and are found represented in many different media, including Roman mosaics and sculpture. A fine example of such a sculptural group is displayed in the Roman Court (L.1992.56.1).
