Full-length figure of a veiled woman against an arbour. She wears a green short-sleeved chiton and a himation, and her head is covered with a veil that reaches down to her feet. She holds a piece of her veil in her left hand and places her right hand at the centre of her chest. The figure is standing, like her husband Hairan, on a rectangular base. 2nd century CE.
