Zuckerberg says that statues of wives are an old Roman tradition that he would like to revive. Now the piece of art will stand in their backyard.

40-year-old Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is married to 39-year-old Priscilla Chan. She was born in the United States to Chinese refugees from Vietnam. They have been together for 20 years and have three daughters. The businessman recently created a huge statue of his wife as a gift. Chan herself is 165 cm tall, but the sculpture is over 2 meters.

"Bringing back the Roman tradition of building statues of your wife," Zuckerberg wrote. He thanked American artist and sculptor Daniel Arsham for his work. “I’m just trying to keep a steady stream of creative projects going,” the Facebook founder added in a comment to CBS.
