This stone sculpture showcased in the Great gallery at the Louvre of Lens towers above with its slightly larger than life torso of a woman. The subject remains unclear but research indicates that it could either portray the Egyptian Goddess Isis or a Greek Queen of Egypt, both possibilities equally plausible. It dates from 300-100 BC.
