Well done all! The sculpture is known as;

SPOILER: Click to show

Veiled Rebecca and can be seen the Salar Jung Museum, Hyderabad, India.

Created by an Italian neoclassical sculptor, Giovanni Maria Benzoni. This life-sized sculpture of Rebecca represents innocence and purity as Giovanni Benzoni skilfully creates the appearance of a transparent veil, an outstanding artistic creation. It stands at a height of 167.0 cm with the statue and its round pedestal carved from a single block of marble without any joints.
