*AN HELLENISTIC MARBLE HEAD OF A VEILED WOMAN. Ca. 4th-3rd century BCE H. 8 cm x L. 5 cm x W. 6 cm Provenance Old private collection, Switzerland, between 1980s-1990s The head, presented frontally, is characterized by a rounded oval shape. Although partially worn by time, the features still reveal almond-shaped, carved eyes, a prominent, ridged brow, and a small, slightly open mouth with somewhat full lips. The short forehead is surmounted by a hairstyle composed of long strands of hair drawn back beneath a veil. The physiognomy and overall appearance are directly reminiscent of Hellenistic Greek portraiture.
