The Bone Throwing Girl is a statue depicting a young girl playing a game of bone craps. This ancient Roman marble statue dates back to about 1500 AD and was restored in the 18th century by Italian sculptor Giuseppi Angelini(1735-1811). The statue was originally a collection of Charles Townley, which he described as a figure of Diana lying down in a tight dress with her left hand supporting her body and her right hand extending forward.
