Sarcophagus of Seianti Hanunia Tlesnasa The woman portrayed on this lavish sarcophagus is the wealthy Etruscan Seianti Hanunia Tlesnasa. Although she is portrayed as a lovely young woman, analysis of the teeth on the body indicates that she was about fifty when she died. The influence of Hellenistic Greek art on Etruscan art is apparent in almost every feature of the sarcophagus.(© The Trustees of the British Museum/Art Resource, NY)
