Female statue of the "Small Herculaneum Woman" type. A replica of a statue originally crafted in the workshop of Athenian sculptor Praxiteles (late 4th c. B.C.), possibly representing Kore-Persephone. The name of this statuary style comes from one among many copies found in Herculaneum, South Italy.
