Abstract: | The present Bachelor-Thesis focuses on the assignment of a fragmentary preserved boy to a seated female garment-sculpture from Pergamon. The sculpture is dated to 125 B.C. and belongs to the Antikensammlung der Staatlichen Museen zu Berlin. The typological and art-historical classification of both objects is based on iconographic aspects and parallel examples as well as characteristic features. This classification is followed by the history of restoration, technological features and a discussion about the petrographic classification of the boy. In line with the historical and aesthetical analyses, a reconstruction and two options of presenting both objects together will be outlined. The yet to be restored sculpture is planned to be shown at the Pergamon- Interim-Museum Berlin in 2018 and later on also at its reopened permanent exhibition. |
