The of a boy named Herakleides. After it was broken, one segment of the was somehow protected from weathering - on it we can still see the painted lower half of the boy, with his little dog jumping up at him. 4th century BC, Museum of the Royal Tombs, Vergina

This is a really good example of how much we lose when fade (or are scrubbed) away.
