Period: Late Republican
Date: 1st century B.C.
Culture: Roman
Medium: Marble, Pentelic
Dimensions: H. 14 7/8 in. (37.8 cm.)

depth 1 1/2 in. (3.8 cm)

Credit Line: Rogers Fund, 1910
Accession Number: 10.210.27
This fragment shows Peitho, the personification of persuasion, seated on a high pillar with one hand on a dove and the other holding the edge of her himation (cloak). This scene was part of a decorative relief of Helen being persuaded by Aphrodite to leave her husband and go off to Troy with the Trojan prince Paris. The work was produced for the Roman market. A well-preserved Roman relief in the Archaeological Museum of Naples (Mus. Naz. 6682) shows the entire composition with all the names inscribed.
