The Phrasikleia Kore is an Archaic Greek funerary statue by the artist Aristion of Paros, created between 550 and 540 BCE. It was found carefully buried in the ancient city of Myrrhinous (modern Merenta) in Attica and excavated in 1972. The exceptional preservation of the statue and the intact nature of the polychromy elements makes the Phrasikleia Kore one of the most important works of Archaic art.

The Phrasikleia Kore
Tumblr media
The Phrasikleia Kore, Archaic Greek funerary statue (ca 540 BCE) by Aristion of Paros, excavated in 1972 in the ancient city of Myrrhinous in Attica and currently at the National Archaeological Museum of Athens.
This is one of the finest examples of an Archaic kore (maiden). It is in very good condition and with much of the original painted decoration preserved. It is the funerary statue of maiden, whose name, Phrasikleia, is inscribed on the pedestal along with that of the sculptor, Aristion from Paros. She stands frontally, her slim and youthful body clad in a long chiton, decorated with incised and painted motifs. She draws up the side of the chiton with her right hand, while she holds a lotus bud near her chest with her left. A blossoming wreath adorns her intricate hairdo and precious jewelry decorates her head and arms. This statue was buried together with a kouros (naked youth) statue in antiquity.                                                                                                                           Exhibit Features

The Kore of Phrasikleia is a beautiful sculpture dating from approximately 550-540 BC, belonging to the archaic period of Greek art and sculpted by the artist Aristion of Paros.
He is presented to us from the front, with a deep look that enhances his elegance.

hasn’t been a particularly productive day, and i don’t have a particularly good excuse: i was just a bit lazy. counting achievements rather than failures though:
wrote fairly detailed plan for chapter
wrote ~400wrds on the hymn to demeter and the phrasikleia kore
wrote ~200wrds on the hippocratic generation
skim-read the hippocratic diseases of women and barrenness marking in relevant bits
also:
did a grocery shop for the week
planned cooking for dinner party tomorrow (!)
less useful achievements:
made two hit insta posts
ordered 30 capsules of fairtrade organic decaf coffee and a mini laptop stand
rest of evening:
shop for dinner party (!)
make bread with bread machine!
compline
turn off phone before getting into bed

Se encontró cuidadosamente enterrada en la antigua ciudad de Myrrhinous (moderno Merenta) en Ática y se excavó en 1972. La excepcional conservación de la estatua y la naturaleza intacta de los elementos policromados hacen de Phrasikleia Kore una de las obras más importantes del arte arcaico. Representa un tipo de estatua arcaica femenina destinada específicamente para uso funerario. La Phrasikleia Kore es una estatua de mármol de Parian que presenta policromía prominente como se ve en el cabello y el vestido.
