Subject Description:

This small child belongs to a type of which several examples have come to light in Attica, most notable in late fourth-century contexts in the sanctuary of Artemis at Brauron. This type is characterized by the child's high-girt chiton, broad round face, and centrally parted hair. This terracotta statuette may have functioned in antiquity as a votive offering in a sanctuary, or as a toy, or perhaps both.
