Description
If the exact provenience of this relief is unsure, it possibly comes from Athens.
It represents a young woman, clad in a sleeved chiton that leaves her right shoulder exposed, standing frontally, her legs crossed. With her bent left arm she supports herself on a loutrophoros, while with her right hand she lifts the mantle that falls lightly on her shoulders.
The woman's head was rpobably turned to the left. The iconographic type of the figure is based on a famous divine statue, probably the "Aphrodite in the Gardens" by the sculptor Alkamenes.
