Description
This grave stele was found west of Athens, in the area of the Dipylon.
A young woman seated on a stool leans forward to embrace her young boy, who rests at her knees, holding a ball in his right hand. A maiden stands in the background.
According to the epigram on the epistyle, the grave belonged to Polyxene, who died leaving her husband and parents in grief.
