Description
This is a sculpture depicting an unknown draped female figure. The figure may be a nymph. The al, most transparent drapery is so lightly carved that the body of the nymph appears almost naked. Originally the sculpture may have been part of the Temple of Asklepios in Greece. The back is not fully carved, suggesting it may originally have been placed in a niche.
The RA owns many plaster casts of antique sculpture, but this is the only original sculpture from antiquity in the RA Collection.
