marmo scolpito

This monumental statue by an unknown artist was presumably conceived for a public building in Rome, perhaps for EUR, or for a cinema in the capital.
The sculpture's face bears some resemblance to the female allegory of the radio in the monument to Guglielmo Marconi, created by Arturo Dazzi and placed at the entrance to Michele Busiri Vici's Italian Pavilion at the 1939 New York World's Fair: The Radio Carrying the Heart of the World.
