拍品专文

The hairstyle of this terracotta is likely inspired by that of the Empress Julia Domna, who was known to have elaborately arranged her hair in a "helmet-like" coiffure with a large spiral plait at the nape of her neck. For a similar example, see no. 161 in W. Hornbostel, Kunst der Antike: Schatze aus norddeutschem Privatbesitz.
