阿尔西诺伊二世头像

Ptolemaic Period
278–270 B.C.
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 134
这一头像原本来自一座半真人大小的雕像，据辨认，它应是国王托勒密二世（公元前284 –246年）的姐姐和妻子阿尔西诺伊二世的相貌，因为它与梵蒂冈一座带铭刻的雕像极为相似。但是，它的制作时间可能在阿尔西诺伊二世当埃及王后的那八年之后，因为曾经安置在她头顶突起部分的王冠的位置和可能的形状都表明，这尊雕像描绘的是神化的（亦即去世之后）阿尔西诺伊装扮成伊西斯 – 哈索尔女神的样子。这种纯粹的埃及风格见证了马其顿希腊背景的托勒密王朝希望将自己表现为法老正统继承者的努力。
