She is adorned with bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and a headpiece. In front of her, a winged erote, seated, holding a phiale. On the opposite side, two draped figures and an altar between them. Restored. Provenance: Property of a gentleman; acquired on the European art market between 1980s and 1990s.
