She comes from Er-Rubayat, a village in the Fayum, the region of Egypt that gave its name to all portraits like this one, painted to be placed over the face of the mummy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe painter worked finely on the face, with very thin lines for the eyebrows, the lashes and the highlights on the cheeks, and with broad strokes on the garment. Those colours had a precise meaning. According to the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, which holds the panel, the pink of the tunic, made with madder, recalls the costly purple worn by the richest women; the black stripes, the clavi, were associated with Roman citizenship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a bedroom it brings home a woman of eighteen centuries ago, proud of her colours.
