Summary

Description
English: The upper part of a draped figure, whether male or female is not certain, which should be an example of the early Daedalid school, whence the art of Peloponnesus was derived; but we can scarcely venture to treat it as a characteristic product of that school; rather the likeness to the dedication of Nicandra is striking.
Date between circa 480 and circa 800 B.C.
Source Encyclopædia Britannica (11th ed.), v. 12, 1911, p. 480, Fig. 23.
