Object Description
A Greek terracotta female head fragment from the Hellenistic period. The face has been delicately rendered with naturalistic facial features, offering a peaceful expression. The attributes are now slight worn due to age. Her hair is parted neatly in the centre and placed in an up-do, crowned with a diadem. Her elegant neck extends downwards, but is heavily truncated. The hollow head is mounted on a custom-made stand.
Date: Circa 6th – 2nd Century BC
