Kore (Primary Title)
Unknown (Artist)
A Kore (from the Greek, meaning “maiden”) is a depiction of a young woman. The Etruscans, including the creator of this statue, were influenced by the artistic conventions of Archaic Greec (7th–5th century BC). Etruscans were masters of the art of producing large-scale terracotta sculptures and frequently used such sculptures instead of stone.
