Fragment of a figurine. Head of a polychrome figurine, which originally probably depicted a woman lying on a bed with her head propped up on a pillow. The woman's head is shown wearing a short, striped wig. Behind the head, a woman's hand is visible, which, like the head, rests on an object that may represent a pillow or bolts of cloth. 332 BC–395 AD; Ptolemaic Period–Roman Period. Egypt. Figurine. Height 2.8 cm; width 5.6 cm; depth 2.5 cm., A small sculpted object sits against a plain light gray background, appearing in shades of beige, tan, and light brown with darker brown weathered lines and spots; the top portion is a rounded shape with carved horizontal grooves, and below it a stacked, segmented column of rounded rectangular forms shows visible cracks and textured surface wear, with shadows and subtle highlights accentuating the carved contours and irregularities.
