Summary

Description
  • English: Grave relief of Demetria and Pamphile. The inscription beneath the pediment gives the names of the two dead sisters. The women, remote and isolated, gaze apathetically at the spectator. They are already in another, transcendental world, far from the things of this life. The pilasters of the naiskos have been restored. It is one of the last tomb stones made before the law passed by Demetrios of Phaleron prohibiting the erection of luxurious tomb monuments. Ca. 325-310 BC. From a grave enclosure by the South Way. Kerameikos, Ancient Graveyard, Athens, Greece.
  • Ελληνικά: Επιτύμβιο ανάγλυφο της Δημητρίας και της Παμφίλης. Η επιγραφή κάτω από το αέτωμα αναφέρει τα ονόματα των δύο νεκρών αδελφών. Οι μορφές απομονωμένες και απόμακρες κοιτούν τον θεατή με απάθεια. Βρίσκονται ήδη σ'έναν άλλο υπερβατικό κόσμο, μακριά από τα εγκόσμια. Στον ναϊσκο έχουν συμπληρωθεί οι παραστάδες. Ανήκει στα τελευταία έργα πριν από τον απαγορευτικό νόμο του Δημητρίου του Φαληρέως κατά της πολυτέλειας των τάφων. Περί το 325-310 π.Χ. Από ταφικό περίβολο της Νοτίας Οδού. Κεραμεικός, Αρχαίο νεκροταφείο, Αθήνα.
  • Italiano: Stele funeraria per le sorelle Demetria e Pamphilè, il cui nome è riportato nell'iscrizione sotto il frontone. I pilastri del naiskos sono frutto di un restauro. Si tratta di uno degli ultimi monumenti funebri di questo tipo realizzati prima che una legge di Demetrio Falereo proibisse le tombe eccessivamente lussuose. Verso il 325-310 a.C. Esposta nel Museo archeologico del Ceramico (Atene), n°P687.
