This nobly restrained figure of a woman, from the middle of the 2nd century A.D., contrasts with the various male Roman portrait heads in the galleries. The dignified status of an aristocratic lady is fully embodied in this majestic work. The body type, often found in imperial female portrait statues, is based on Greek draped figures from the 4th century B.C. Associated with the work of Late Classical sculptors such as Praxiteles or Lysippus, figures of the so-called Small Herculaneum type were frequently adapted in Roman art. Here the heavily draped figure suggests the virtuous character of the commemorated woman. The portrait head used with this standard body type is graceful and pensive. The complete figure radiates a gentle nobility that embodies the best traditions of Roman family life and the high value accorded to distinguished Roman women.
