Cycladic Idol (type Spedos), Marble, chiseled, polished, smoothed, Total: Height: 23.70 cm; Width: 5.90 cm; Depth: 5.00 cm, Three-dimensional sculptures, human figure, FK II, Female Cycladic Idol in Spedos type. The elongated, naked figure has her arms superimposed under her plastically indicated breasts. The parallel legs end in strong, not further differentiated stumps. The massive, almost cylindrical neck carries the angled head, which is directed upwards. The nose is plastically worked. Remains of horizontal lines in red color are preserved at the ends of the neck, which are probably to be understood as representations of jewelry. More traces of color can be found on the right hand. Already in the antiquity a restoration of the legs broken off at the level of the knees took place. With only a few copies such a repair can be proven, which is at the same time an expression of appreciation. What function the idols had is still unclear. After their discovery in the 19th century, the strong stylization of the mostly female figures did not correspond to the public's taste, but they were to become a source of inspiration for modern art.
