Hand-modelled, the sculpture depicts a figure of indeterminate gender, characterised above all by the obvious deformation of its spine: its back forms a large hump, emphasised by the spine, which is slightly raised, and by the rendering of the ribs, painted dark brown. This deformity causes the figure’s torso to lean abnormally forwards and to the left.
Mycenaean Terracotta Statuette in T Symbol from the 14th-13th century B.C.
This statuette, the lower part of which is hollow, was modelled by hand. It
depicts a slender, graceful woman with rather abstract features. It was from the end of the 15th century BCE that figurines of this type began to appear in Mycenaean dwellings, tombs and sanctuaries.
This bronze cast Applique in the shape of the Bust of Herakles is slightly hollow in the lower part. Given its semicircular outline, it is thought to have been part of a bed decoration (fulcrum).
