The goddess' hair is center parted, rolled back and bound in a top knot and a chignon at the back. Two small curls escape and hang delicately on the forehead and a single lock falls before each ear. The remains of a diadem atop the head recalls the mural-crowns worn by tutelary deities such as Fortuna, Hestia and Cybele. For a similar head at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, see acc. no. 23.160.5.
