The roughly trapezoidal sherd preserves the profile of a female figure facing left, drawn in the Attic‑influenced manner: she has a long, finely contoured eye and nose, a small chin, and abundant wavy hair cascading in thick curls down the neck, rendered with dilute‑glaze internal strokes against the reserved orange‑red clay. A few sharp linear folds at the shoulder suggest a chiton or himation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe surrounding field is covered with a glossy black glaze, now slightly abraded and speckled with small encrustations and pinprick losses from burial; the reverse is largely glazed black with wheel‑turning grooves visible and old collection or inventory labels attached. All fracture edges are ancient and stable, with no apparent modern restoration or repainting in the images provided. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSize: measuring approximately 2‑3\/8 inches (6 cm) in both height and width.\u003cbr\u003eProperty from a New York City Collection","brand":"Art for Eternity","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67715435659578,"sku":"17446","price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0775\/5120\/6714\/files\/100991.jpg?v=1792188667","url":"https:\/\/howardnowes.com\/products\/greek-apulian-red-figure-pottery-figural-fragment","provider":"Art for Eternity","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
