Female Torso

Cleveland Museum of Art

The torso of a woman made from light-brown clay stands on a gray surface against a black background. The sculpture depicts the woman's neck, shoulders, chest, abdomen, and hips. The right arm is bent at the elbow with the hand near the hip; the left shoulder and arm are bare. A horizontal line encircles the woman's chest. The sculpture appears weathered with areas of discoloration and chipping. This is "Female Torso" by Phidias.
