Description
This sculpture representing a woman torso, unfortunately, missing the head. With attributes in the hand of the woman such as wheat in the right hand and torch in the left, this woman can be possibly identified as a Demeter, the ancient Greek goddess of the grain, agriculture, harvest, growth, and nourishment, who presided over grains and the fertility of the earth.
Torso was found in the unknown provenance.
