Description:

530 BCE
Marble, paint
Greece

Originally named because she was thought to be wearing a peplos.Research suggests that this is may not be an offering; but a goddess.
What she is wearing plays a big role in her identity along with the original coloring of the sculpture.
Evidence of animal imagery along front of skirt (maybe referencing fertility?)
