Description
A headless sculpture, assumed to be the Greek goddess of women, marriage and birth, Hera. Married to her brother Zeus, she is the queen of the greek Gods, and was known for her jealous nature, usually portrayed in cult statues as solemn and majestic.
This piece can be best viewed from the front and its arms and head were created separately; she presumably held a spectre and a libation bowl in her hands.
