The painter used encaustic, colours mixed with hot wax, laid directly on the lime wood, without a ground layer. Like the other portraits we call Fayum portraits, it was placed over the face of the mummy, among the bandages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Getty Museum in Los Angeles, which holds the panel, has studied it closely. The painter laid the paint thickly on the face and hair, incised the lashes in the wax and worked the curls with a cestrum, a small tool like a palette knife. The colours are iron earths, madder red and lead white. The panel, thin and curved, has its upper corners cut like the portraits from Er-Rubayat, a village in the Fayum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a living room it brings home a man of Roman Egypt painted with the strength of a sculptor.
