A GREEK MARBLE PORTRAIT OF A QUEEN Ptolemaic Period, Circa 3rd Century B.C. Perhaps depicting Bernike II, her oval head turned to her right and slightly inclined, the deep-set eyes gazing upwards beneath softly-modelled brows, the fleshy lips slightly parted, the center-parted wavy hair bound in a fillet and tied in a chignon, the remains of an iron pin at the back for attachment of now-missing plaster additions, the earlobes drilled for attachment of now-missing earrings, the long neck with the clavicular notch rendered 15 in. (38 cm) high
