Ptolemaic Queen in the Walters Art Museum, September 2009
Head of a Queen, Perhaps Cleopatra II or Cleopatra III
Creator: Egyptian (Artist)
Period: ca. 140-120 BC (Greco-Roman)
Medium: limestone (Sculpture)
Accession Number: 22.407
Measurements: 9 3/4 x 7 x 8 7/8 in. (24.7 x 17.8 x 22.5 cm)
Geographies: Egypt (Place of Origin)
Shown wearing a heavy wig composed of tiers of "corkscrew" curls, the queen also has a headband with a coiled uraeus serpent above her brow. Of the seven Ptolemaic queens named Cleopatra (the last being the Cleopatra associated with Julius Caesar and Marc Antony), this head may represent Cleopatra II or her daughter, Cleopatra III, both of whom lived in the 2nd century BC. The facial features are more individualized, reflecting the Greek influence of the Ptolemaic royal court.
