Phoenician Goddess Terracotta Head on wooden stand, 400-200 BC. An interesting Phoenician/Graeco-Egyptian clay or terracotta head, together with a wood stand, the pottery with traces of pink and white decoration, circa 4th-2nd century BC (according to Christies). Size: The head itself is 4.3 in. = 11 cm high. The head on its stand is 6.5 in. = 16.5 cm high overall.
Condition: There is a re-glued section to the reverse (see photos); obviously there is age wear to the pigmentation etc. Possibly, the head was originally part of a larger piece. There is also a small chip to one corner of the wood stand; no further damage or restoration.
