1794. Female bead, restored as a
terminal bust. The hair, con-
fined by a twisted diadem, is
waved from the middle, and
drawn back into a knot. The

formal style. It appears to be
copied from an original of the middle of the oth cent. B.C.,
closely allied to the pedimental sculptures of Olympia.

Greek Art, p. 13. A replica was found in the Austrian excava-
tions at Ephesus (Ausstellung von Fundstiickcn, 1901, p. 6).

1795. Female head, slightly inclined upwards, with waving
hair brought down over the ears to a knot at the back.
The head is encircled with a bead-and-reel chaplet, and
with sprigs of myrtle. The brows are slightly contracted,
with a tragic expression, and the lips are parted. On
the top of the head is a square dowel hole, as if for some
ornament.—Temple Bequest.

Fine-grained marble. Height, 1 foot 3£ inches. Restored : part of
neck. Grceco-Roman Guide, II., No. 99. Furtwaengler (Jfeister-
werke, p. 528) suggests a connexion with the Apollo of Scopas
in the Vatican.
