Photograph of the sculpture known as "Athena Hope-Farnese," sometimes also known as "Athena Farnese." The sculpture depicts a female figure wearing an elaborate crown and extending one arm outward, while her other arm is raised as if holding a staff or spear. The statue is placed on top of a pedestal with the inscriptions, "The Farnese Minerva. From the Museum Naples," written on its front side.
