A girl, naked except for a scarf around her hair, is sitting playing the double pipes.This is the first female nude to appear in Greek art. Her right leg is crossed above the knee, showing some problems with representation (where is her far hip?) Her hands and feet are badly damaged. Note the change in texture of the marble between the relief and the lower portion where there probably was a frame, something like the one on the Boston Throne . |
