Sicilian Bust of a Woman in the Getty Villa, July 2008

Sicilian Bust of a Woman in the Getty Villa, July 2008
Bust of a Woman
Greek, made in Centuripe, Sicily, 300-200 BC
Terracotta and pigment

Inventory # 70.AD.120

Traces of white, red, and pink pigment remain on the surface of this once richly painted bust. The woman is adorned with bracelets on her upper arms, earrings, and crown. She probably represents a divinity or a youthful, beautiful family member of the dedicator.
