Marble Portrait Bust of an Antonine Woman in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Sept. 2007

Marble Portrait Bust of an Antonine Woman in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Sept. 2007
Marble portrait bust of a woman
Roman, Antonine period, ca. 155-165 AD

Accession # 13.115.2

This woman wears a stola and palla wrapped around her shoulders. A separate marble piece in the form of a bun was originally attached at the back of the head. The arrangement of the hair is like that worn by Faustina the Younger, wife of Marcus Aurelius, around the middle of the second century AD .

Text from the Metropolitan Museum of Art label.
