Private female portrait without head or hands.

Portrait of a woman, dressed in tunic, stola and palla, of which only the limbs, carved on a single block of marble, have survived, lacking those that were carved separately by attaching them to the torso with bolts: head, arms and right foot. This figure has been associated with a lost original by Praxiteles, not as a replica but as a derivation of it. The Praxitelian type would have a notable success in Greece, being reworked in later centuries, so that the Roman world would receive both copies and variants. Due to the manner of dress, which reveals the contours of the body and the folds of the garment, it could be dated to between the reigns of Nero and Claudius.
