Cycladic Marble Female Figurine in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Oct. 2007

Cycladic Marble Female Figurine in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Oct. 2007
Marble female figure
Cycladic, Early Cycladic I, Plastiras type, ca. 3200-2800 BC

Accession # 45.11.18

The figure wears a headdress; on later works, the headdress is painted rather than incised. The pairs of holes in the neck and the right leg are ancient repairs from which the "clamp," of metal or another material, is missing.

Text from the Metropolitan Museum of Art label.
