Tanım

The figure stands with the right knee bent and the leg drawn back. This leg is clearly revealed by the clinging drapery, while the other leg is totally obscured. The peplos is carefully carved on all sides, although the folds are deeper on the front than the back. The upper garment of the peplos has a long fold which hangs down to the feet on the right side. Two rough bosses project from this fold; one is also on the left side, and another on the rear. A small iron pin remains in one of these, perhaps for the attachment of the right arm.

The woman is an elongated and elegant peplos figure, and the carving is competent. The proportions and the carving suggests a date in the late Hellenistic period.

Condition

White marble with dark blue streaks.

Figure is preserved from about waist height to her feet which, however, are missing. Plinth partially preserved, although edges are broken. Underside of plinth has hollow cutting and a slanting cut on the lower rear. Small modern break on right edge of the plinth.
