Athena Velletri Right View With Movement Study

Athena Velletri bust from right with study
Lead

• The peplus (dress) is slipping from the right shoulder so it opens under de right arm leaving the chest partially visible.
• (The peplus is just a simple rectangle of cloth pinned at the shoulders and belted, and wrapped around the body from left to right, thus opened at the right side of the body.)
• The left breast is ahead and lower then the right one due to the rotation of the body to the right and the raise of the right shoulder.
