Statuette of a Dancer (statuette (figurine); Unknown Greek (Tarantine) (Greek (Tarantine) Artist); 3rd century BCE; J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Villa (Malibu, Los Angeles...; 96.AD.246)

Note: The dancer steps forward, looking downward as she moves. Her himation conceals her figure completely, and reveals her right arm as she holds it to her stomach. Her other arm is bent and held behind her back at waist height. Her drapery swirls around her feet, and the edges of her himation flare out at her sides. She wears an ivy wreath in her melon coiffure.
