19037 (none) (none) (none) Statuette. White calcite. Of a woman, standing with hands clasped on her breast, wearing the kaukanes. The figure is carved in the round but the back is almost flat and the back of the head, which is missing, seems to have been added in plaster: it is carved from a slab of stone the back of which is the back of the statute. The eyes are inlaid with shell and lapis lazuli, and a strip of lapis lazuli forms the fillet across the forehead and down each side of the face: the eyebrows were in black paste (which came away in powder with the dirt) and there was black paint on the hair and in the grooves of the kaukanes: none of this could be preserved. The left side is stained green by the corrosion of the axe which lay against it. The stone is decayed in places and has run in blisters which interfere with the modelling of the face (right side) , right arm and hair. Some of the lapis inlay had been lost in antiquity. The figure is made in two pieces morticed together.
