Framed Print of Head of a Young Woman from a Grave Naiskos, about 320 BC. Creator: Unknown
Head of a Young Woman from a Grave Naiskos, about 320 BC. Head of a Woman from a Funerary Monument.
Additional Info: Originally part of a funerary monument, this head of a girl displays facial features and a hairstyle typical of Athenian sculpture in the late 300s BC She wears her hair parted in rows, braided and pulled back, a style called a melon coiffure by scholars. On the girl's neck, there are two widely spaced fleshy rings with an indentation between them, so-called Venus rings. This trait was probably a status symbol, indicating the health and good nutrition provided by wealth. This head was made separately and inserted into a body carved in relief on the back slab of a naiskos, or small three-sided funerary monument. The flat surfaces on the back of the head rested against the slab. They show that the girl was posed in a three-quarter frontal view.
