I can’t remember what deities or such this is supposed to depict, but it’s one of the Roman fragments on display at the museum in Bath. As is the case with many of my favorite shots, I love the lighting on this one.

The Metronae, perhaps? And yes, the lighting is great on this photo.

Rings a bell; that might be it.

Matronae. Sorry for the typo...

'sokay; I knew what you meant. :-)

three women ususally mean the Fates..

[swan-tower.livejournal.com]

Definitely wasn't the Fates -- I would have remembered it if were. I think siduri might be right about the Matronae. (It ain't like classical religion was short on female triads: Fates, Furies, Graces, Graeae, Horae . . . .)

would the museum have their catalog online?
