A ROMAN MARBLE SARCOPHAGUS FRAGMENT
CIRCA 2ND CENTURY A.D.
Sculpted in high relief, preserving a reclining female figure in back view, nude but for a mantle draped over her legs and over her proper left arm on which she leans, her slender body with well-defined buttocks and an articulated spine, her head dramatically turned and gazing upwards, with wavy hair bound in a chignon at the nape of her neck, a wheel, likely from a chariot, preserved in the background and a snaky tendril, preserved above her abdomen
23 in. (58.4 cm.) long
