Title: | Head of Female Figure | |
Category: | Sculpture | |
Description: | Nose, mouth and chin battered. At neck, chisel marks, indicating that head was cut from body. Elongated face, the hair, which is rather roughly worked in "melon-waves", is gathered up into a knot at the top of the head. Ears pierced for rings. Pentelic marble. ADDENDA More like a lampadion cut than a melon cut - looks too loose and irregular. Late 4th century. Back left of head roughly chiseled with point at a sharp angle. Looks like a girl from a large gravestone, but would she have earrings? (AS 1997). | |
