Description:

Found in the rectangular peristyle of the Villa of the Papyri at Herculaneum. "Peplophoros' is simply a woman wearing a peplos; the whole group of six statues found there is sometimes referred to as the Peplophoroi. This statue is smaller than the other five, known as hydrophorai (water carriers); it is also not made of the same alloy. It was cast in numerous pieces with the hair and feet attached separately. It is the only one of the group wearing sandals. Because of this it is displayed separately from the other group. Like the other statues it has eyes inlaid with bone or ivory and a dark gray stone.
