Photogrammetry-based 3D scan of the marble bust Helen of Troy, sculpted by Antonio Canova and his workshop after 1812.
The sculpture presents Helen of Troy as an idealised figure of classical beauty. It belongs to the series of ideal female heads that Canova developed from around 1811, combining subjects from mythology, history and literature.
The original marble object represented in this scan is held by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
This digital model was created for study, visualisation and artistic reference. Surface details and geometry reflect the limitations of the original scanning and reconstruction process.
