Bronze, dunkelbraun patiniert. Auf einer runden Plinthe steht die verkleinerte Version der stehenden Minerva-Statue. Die römische Statue ist eine Kopie nach dem griechischen Vorbild aus dem 5. - 4. Jahrhundert v. Chr. Das römische Standbild wurde im 17. Jahrhundert auf dem Esquilin in Rom ausgegraben und fand kurz darauf seinen Weg in die Sammlung von Vincenzo Giustiniani. Die vorliegende, fein ausgearbeitete Plastik folgt in allen Details dem römischen Vorbild. Bei der Schlange, die sich links am Speer hochschlängelt, könnte es sich um Erichthonius handeln, der der Sage nach aus dem Samen des Hephaistos geboren wurde, als dieser versuchte, der jungfräulichen Göttin habhaft zu werden.
