An ancient marble sculpture fragment, depicting the head and neck of a figurine, is displayed in a museum setting. The artifact, made of light-colored marble, features a simplified, abstract form characteristic of Cycladic art. The head is elongated and oval-shaped with a distinct, triangular nose projection, and is supported by a short, cylindrical neck. The sculpture is mounted on a thin metal rod, which extends from a white display stand. The background is a plain, light gray wall, illuminated by overhead lighting that highlights the texture and contours of the marble. A label on the white display stand provides details about the artifact in both Greek and English. The Greek text reads: "Κεφάλι και λαιμός μαρμάρινου ειδωλίου, 2700 - 2400/2300 π.Χ. Μουσείο Κυκλαδικής Τέχνης, Ν20284" (Head and neck of a marble figurine, 2700 - 2400/2300 BC. Museum of Cycladic Art, N20284). The English translation below it states: "Head and neck of a marble figurine, 2700- 2400/2300 BC Museum of Cycladic Art, N20284". The artifact is from the Early Cycladic period, roughly 2700 to 2300 BC, and is part of the collection of the Museum of Cycladic Art, located in Athens, Greece.
