Description
The depiction of a woman wearing a chiton and a himation that covers her head and torso, which is rendered from the hips up. Her right-hand hold the hem of the himation, while her left arm hangs parallel with her body. This unusual type of funerary statue is also known from other Aegean islands. A base found with the statue, to which it probably belongs, is inscribed with the name of the heroized dead woman: Lysikleia.
