A limestone carving, copy of Giant head from Monte Prama, an ancient stone sculpture created by the Nuragic civilization of Sardinia, Italy discovered in 1974. Highly stylized and geometrically shaped, similarly to the so-called Daedalic style, well established in Crete during the 7th century BC. The face follows a T-scheme typical of Sardinian bronze statuettes. The superciliary arch and nose are very pronounced, the eyes are sunken and symbolically rendered by two concentric circles. The mouth is incised with a short stroke, linear or angular. Collectible Sculpture, Stone Carvings, Decor.
