An ancient Roman bronze Nereid seated on the back of the stag-headed sea monster with forked tail and wings at its side; the Nereid’s garment around her waist and her cape billowing above her head; on an integrally cast rectangular base with a pelta shield at front.
This bronze group likely came from a group of four representing the attendant Nereids of Thetis delivering the arms of Achilles across the sea.
