Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is scoring points in the love department after sharing a photo of a statue of his wife, Priscilla Chan, he commissioned in the name of “Roman tradition.” The 40-year-old Facebook founder posted the image and an accompanying video to Instagram Tuesday, with Chan, 39, posing alongside the giant statue while wearing a robe and sipping out of a mug which appears to be the same color theme of the statue. “Bringing back the Roman tradition of making sculptures of your wife,” Zuckerberg added, while tagging artist Daniel Arsham. The statue of Chan shows her in a silver garment appearing to be blown by the wind. Chan, meanwhile, posted the image to her Instagram Story with the caption: “You can’t miss me!” Citing a blog from the National Museums Liverpool, People reports that Romans often created statues in honor of late loved ones.
