limestone Cretan sculpture called the Lady of Auxerre, (or Kore of Auxerre).

limestone Cretan sculpture called the Lady of Auxerre, (or Kore of Auxerre). Depicts an archaic Greek goddess of c. 650 - 625 BC. It is a Kore (maiden), perhaps a votary rather than the maiden Goddess Persephone. The Archaic sculpture, bearing traces of polychrome decoration, dates from the 7th century BCE, when Greece was emerging from its Dark Age. She still has the narrow waist of a Minoan-Mycenaean goddess, and her stiff hair suggests Egyptian influence.
