Incomplete figure in draped costume, Late Period–Ptolemaic Period, 4th century B.C., From Egypt, Limestone, H. 23 cm (9 1/16 in.); W. 9 cm (3 9/16 in.); D. 6.4 cm (2 1/2 in.), This enigmatic piece has not yet been fully explained. It was probably a sculptor's model: it lacks a back pillar, no head or feet were intended, and the arms were treated in a rudimentary fashion. The artist's interest appears to have been in the garment rather than the body beneath
