CATALOGUE OF SCULPTURE.

1325. Part of a left upper arm, wearing a sleeve, and having
a fold of drapery thrown over it. The fragment is worked
on each side for combining with other portions of a statue
of somewhat more than life size.—Temenos of Demeter,
Cnidos.

Marble. Height, 1 foot.

1326. Fragment from the left-hand lower corner of a panel
with a relief. Two closely draped female figures, pre-
served from the breasts downwards, are moving to the
left.—Temenos of Demeter, Cnidos.

Marble. Height, 8J inches.

1327. Fragments of marble sculpture, from the temenos, con-
sisting of feet, hands, and arms. The feet are of various
scales, above and below life size, and for the most part
wear sandals, with high soles, painted red. They are
worked to a joint about the middle of the instep, and were
attached to draped figures in such a way that the toes
projected from under the drapery. The arms and hands
are similarly worked.—Temenos of Demeter, Cnidos.
