Sarcophagus of the Spouses. Profile of the figures.
About This Item
ETRUSCAN Anonymous: The side view of this sarcophagus shows a couple reclining together on a banquet couch. Both figures gesture outward and their hands at one point probably clasped food or a lost item. The figures are sculpted in Greek Ionian style with an emphasis on outer contours rather than anatomical destinctions.
