From the Getty Museum record
Fragment with the helmeted head of a female, possibly Athena, looking to the left. She wears an Attic helmet and her hair is tied back. Much of the added white used for her flesh is still preserved. A tongue and dart band runs just above the helmeted figure. At the very top of the fragment, a black shape with white lines, possibly the crest of the helmet, interrupts the tongue and dart pattern. This fragment likely comes from side A of a Panathenaic amphora.
