Terracotta Statue of a Woman in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, December 2022
Title: Terracotta statuette of a woman
Period: Hellenistic
Date: late 3rd century BCE
Culture: Greek, South Italian, Tarentine
Medium: Terracotta
Dimensions: H.: 11 3/8 in. (28.9 cm)
Classification: Terracottas
Credit Line: Rogers Fund, 1911
Accession Number: 11.212.18
A wide band of bright pink lines the hem of the himation (mantle) draped around this female figure. The pigment is superimposed on a thick layer of white, which intensifies its color. The same pink is used for the dress and the korymboi (ivy berries) in the wreath, and Egyptian blue highlights the leaves. The figure may represent a maenad, a follower of Dionysos, god of wine.
