Marble torso of a statue of a female figure in long himation and with quiver. The severely damaged statue of monumental dimensions probably comes from Asia Minor and copies an important work of 330 BC. This is the famous ‘Zingarella’, an enigmatic creation of Greek sculpture which possibly renders the goddess Artemis. Antonine period (AD 117-180). H. 1 m. Acquired with the contribution of the National Bank, of the Commercial Bank, and of the Ionian and Popular Bank. (ΓΕ 32647)
