Inspired originally by Greek funerary portraits, the image of the veiled woman became very popular for statues in Cyprus and throughout the Eastern Mediterranean at this time. The style was influenced by fashions at the ruling Ptolemaic court based in Egypt, though the statue is not necessarily that of a contemporary ruler. The absence of a body on this limestone example makes it difficult to identify the statue as a worshipper or a goddess.
