Tondo: Portrait of a Young Noblewoman, 2nd C CE

Tondo: Portrait of a Young Noblewoman, 2nd C CE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art. From the sculpture's description on [artsmia.org](www.artsmia.org): *'The half-figure relief was a common form used for Roman funerary sculpture. Here the deceased is depicted with a veil over her head signifying piety. Holes drilled in her ear lobes show that this figure once wore earrings which, together with the large size of the relief, indicate that the deceased came from a wealthy family.* *'During the century following the reign of the emperor Augustus (27 B.C.-14 A.D.) the depiction of a maternal figure was also a moral statement, reflecting his program aimed at restoring ancient Roman virtues. A series of laws were passed to promote good moral behavior and to encourage marriage, curb adultery and divorce, and increase the birth rate.* More information [here](https://collections.artsmia.org/art/1700/tondo-roman) Source: Objaverse 1.0 / Sketchfab

圆形浮雕（Tondo）：青年贵族女子肖像，创作于公元2世纪，现藏于明尼阿波利斯艺术博物馆（Minneapolis Institute of Art）。该雕塑在[artsmia.org](www.artsmia.org)的介绍如下：
*“这件半身浮雕是古罗马丧葬雕塑的常见形制。作品中逝者头戴面纱，象征其虔敬之心。耳郭上的钻孔痕迹表明，该造像原本佩戴耳饰；结合这件浮雕的宏大体量，可推断逝者出身富裕家族。
*“在奥古斯都大帝（公元前27年—公元14年）统治后的百年间，描绘女性母性形象亦是一种道德宣言，呼应了其旨在复兴古罗马传统美德的施政纲领。彼时通过一系列法令，旨在弘扬良善道德风尚、鼓励婚姻、遏制通奸与离婚行为，并提升生育率。
