Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!

Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.

Ah, now we know what modern video games used to draw their portrayal of female beauty from.

Amazing how much details of clothes are present. And all of it is metal, meaning even harder producing sequence than by using stone. Sadly that this statue is damaged since I am curious what the face looked like back then.
