Demeter is shown seated on a throne. The lower arms are lost, together with the hands, at least one of which probably held a libation bowl or torch. The head was carved separately from the body. The goddess is portrayed as a paradigm of Greek womanhood, serene, mature, motherly and modestly veiled. A statue of her daughter Persephone (now lost) was perhaps shown standing beside her. The sculpture was found in the sanctuary of Demeter at Knidos.
