Marble head of a veiled goddess
late 4th or 3rd century B.C.
Greek
Object Details
Title: Marble head of a veiled goddess
Period: Hellenistic
Date: late 4th or 3rd century B.C.
Culture: Greek
Medium: Marble
Dimensions: Overall: 12 7/8 x 11 x 12 1/4 in. (32.7 x 27.9 x 31.1 cm)
Classification: Stone Sculpture
Credit Line: Gift of Brian T. Aitken, 2002, and on the occasion of the reinstallation of the Greek and Roman galleries, 2007

Despite its worn condition, this head radiates with the serenity and power of Late Classical art. The series of holes drilled in the hair probably held a metal diadem or wreath. The goddess Demeter may be represented.
