Sculptured tombs of Hellas

by Percy Gardner

[153] VII. 37. Cf. 707.

[154] Anth. Palat. vii. 62.

[155] See especially a paper by Professor Loeschcke in Athen. Mittheil. iv. 292.

[156] Pliny, N. H. xxxv. 153.

[157] Athen. Mittheil. iv. pl. vi.

[158] For example, Dr. Waldstein, in the first volume of the Journal of Hellenic Studies, p. 168.

[159] Athen. Mittheil. iv. pl. iii.

[160] I. 90. τειχίζειν δὲ ... φειδομένους μήτε ἰδίου μήτε δημοσίου οἰκοδομήματος.

[161] The head also does not belong to the statue, and the right arm and other parts are restorations. See the Berlin Denkmäler, i. pl. 31, 32.

[162] For the basket see [Fig. 62]: for the attitude cf. [Pl. XXVI]. Epigrams to be placed on tombs adorned with statues of women are to be found in the Anthology, vii. 649, &c. As a replica of the ‘Penelope’ in very high relief exists in the Vatican, we may regard it as likely that the original was not entirely detached from the background.
