Her face is modelled with a serene expression, with red-painted lips and traces of black pigment outlining the hair, which is piled into an elaborate coiffure with a central knot. This piece has been precisely dated using a Thermo Luminescence analysis carried out by Ralf Kotalla. The report will accompany the lot.
