A Tribute to the Net-men of Rome
The retiarius, one of the most popular types of gladiators, were renowned for their use of the trident and the net as their primary weapons. This statue is crafted from cold cast bronze and features intricate hand painted details. The retiarius gladiator has short, realistic textured hair on his head with bronze highlights and darker contrast in the recesses. The retiarius has a determined facial expression complete with realistic facial hair. Further down, the gladiator has a manica, or arm guard, on his right arm while he has a carved leather pauldron known as a galerus on his left. The manica has segmented plates with an intricate hammered texture. Each plate also has intricately carved filigree and studded accents. The manica even has a notched blade-breaker protecting the top of the shoulder. The galerus and the manica are connected by a realistically carved leather harness across the chest. The straps have a golden buckle and realistic studs. On the gladiator’s left arm is an expertly carved armband. The gladiator’s body has realistic muscular texture for added depth and dimension. Textured wrist wraps cover the lower arms of the gladiator. In his right hand, he holds the famous trident with its points down. In his left, he holds the even more famous rete, or net. That net is carved with realistic textures to make it look like a real net.
An intricately carved belt wraps around the gladiator’s waist and holds up the carved loincloth. The center of the belt has a fearsome beast holding a ring in its jaws. The design of the gladiator is finished with a greave on the left leg and wraps on the right leg. The left leg even has a realistic vein. The left greave has a man embossed on its surface for added depth. Moving down the length, the base is carved to look like rock and stone. The base has a raised layer that allows the gladiator to assume a battle-ready stance.
