Statue acquired in 1971, head in 1981Marble, Roman, after a model from around 440/30 BC The statue is high-quality Roman copy from the early Imperial Age. The woman dressed in the heavy woolen peplos once held a fruit bowl in her hand, which is no longer attached due to the missing left lower arm. This attribute characterised her as being in the act of devotion. Stylistically, she is related to the girls from the Parthenon frieze.
