Description: | Fragment of a hollow mouldmade terracotta figurine; only the front half survives. The subject wears a dress with cloak over his left shoulder and he raises his right hand to his mouth, the wrist of which is decorated with a garland. On his head is a mitra and a bunch of grapes thus associating him with Dionysos or representing the baby dionysos rather than HArpocrates as would be suggested by the finger to mouth pose.
