Pudicitia Mattei

Hi everyone ! This Roman statue derives from a Hellenistic sculpture produced between the end of the 3rd and the beginning of the 2nd century BC and intended to adorn a funerary monument. It possibly represents the Empress Livia, wife of Augustus, in the guise of Melpomene, muse of tragedy. The statue is currently in the Chiaramonti Museum in the Vatican. I made this statue from a free 3D model I found on the Internet. I reduced significantly the number of faces (2 000 000 to 9 800), built an UV map, normal map and textures.

Detail of an ancient Roman statue of a woman in the pudicitia pose, with pudicitia being loosely translated into English as “modesty” or “chastity.” Pudicitia is a Latin word that stems from pudor, another Latin word meaning “shame” or the “sense of shame” that compelled Roman men and women to behave in socially acceptable ways.

The pudicitia scheme or style, as it is called by scholars today, was commonly used to depict ancient Greek and Roman women in art. The pose is characterized by the woman’s head covering and the bending of both her arms, with one bent up to her face and the other crossed over her torso. That her arms are covered by her mantle is also characteristic of the pudicitia style.

Currently located in the Vatican Museums, this statue is a Flavian-era (69-96 CE) Roman copy of a Hellenistic Greek original (323 BCE-30 CE). Photo taken by Egisto Sani on Flickr.
