This terracotta sculpture depicts a woman with a wide headdress that is partly broken off. Her face is rendered in an Archaic style, with her mouth and eyes in low relief and her lips lifting upward in a serene smile. Originally, details such as the eyes and decoration on the headdress would probably have been painted on the surface of the sculpture.
