Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The statuette is one of the most beautiful ancient terracottas in existence. The close-fitting rode of the goddess of love has slipped from the shoulders; her raised left leg perhaps stood on a pillar. The front of the figure, which was shaped in a mould, was carved using a modelling scaper and finally painted. Inv. 31272
Deutsch: Die Statuette ist eine der schönsten antiken Terrakotta, die es gibt. Der enganliegende Ritt der Liebesgöttin ist von den Schultern gerutscht; ihr erhobenes linkes Bein stand vielleicht auf einer Säule. Die Vorderseite der in einer Form geformten Figur wurde mit einem Modellierschaber geschnitzt und abschließend bemalt. Inv.-Nr. 31272
