Title: | Relief Fragment | |
Category: | Sculpture | |
Description: | Single marble fragment broken on all four sides, and possibly on the back where there are no clear tooling marks and the surface is uneven. The relief is well preserved save for some wear at the upper left and right hand corners, a chip in the lower left corner, and a nick in the right forearm of the one best preserved figure. Three figures, draped in long mantles, stand before an altar (?) in the lower right hand corner and only partially preserved. The left figure and the right figures (who stands behind the altar) are only evident from their clothing and its folds. The central figure appears to be a bearded male facing right, toward the altar. His right arm is drawn across his chest, palm inward, paralleling the fall of the diagonal mantle. He stands with his weight on his left leg, his right being drawn back slightly as if resting on the ball of his now missing foot. White marble. | |
Context: | North scarp of section ΒΓ. Late fill above Panathenaic Way. | |
