Description
An account of the resource
Fragmentary limestone bust of a woman, perhaps originally part of a funerary relief from Palmyra. The figure wears a headdress and veil, and her hair is parted in the middle and gathered around behind the headdress band and beneath the veil. The band is decorated with a rectangular pattern. She wears a tunic and cloak, and her left arm appears to be wrapped beneath the cloak. The figure's eyes, pupils, and eyebrows are incised, and her face full, with a soft jawline. The treatment of her hair and decorative band is similar to <a href="http://wireproject.org/items/show/709#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PAL0111</a> and <a href="http://wireproject.org/items/show/710#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PAL0112</a>.
