Roman Bronze Lamp with Winged Figure Handle
A green-patinated bronze oil lamp with an elongated spout at left and a round filling well with a central nozzle. Its curved handle at right ends in a small winged figure, perhaps a deity, with a bird-like form and raised arms. The object rests on a low circular foot against a plain gray background.
