Three female portraits in marble, from the Temple of Isis at Pompeii - Naples Archaeological Museum

The heads, for the strong individual characterizations, must be interpreted as portraits. They belonged to acrolite statues that had also the limbs in marble, while the rest of the body was made with wood. First Imperial age.
