It is a red clay statue from ancient Greece, currently housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris. Created by Athenian potters around 350 BC. It depicts a dancer dressed in a transparent robe, whose theme shares similarities with statues created by other studios in the Hellenistic world at that time (330-31 BC). Early sculptures of this kind were sometimes believed to depict Nymphs (related to the god Pan), but they were also considered mortal, meaning future brides who participated in the sacred wedding dance.
