Bronze/stone sculptural head of a young woman with a tripartite wig and simple facial features, shown from the front.
The image shows a carved sculptural head of a young woman, with a rounded bald/covered dome resembling the top of a wig and a clearly delineated forehead. The face has almond-shaped inset eyes with defined lids, a straight nose, and a small, closed mouth. The hair/wig appears to be arranged in a smooth, stylized manner around the head, with a central emphasis on the forehead and hairline. The head sits on a separate, rectangular dark base that has a speckled black-and-red surface pattern resembling mottled stone or painted/abraded finish. No readable inscriptions are visible on the head or base, and no Greek/Coptic/Arabic text is apparent in the photograph.
