Perhaps you might try to narrow the range by finding out where women wore headdresses of that sort, and wore them when getting wet. Cross-referencing these factors with specifically iconographic ones (big thighs, incredibly narrow shanks) should help narrow the field. ...

It is an understandable thing that people tend to define a picture by recognisable objects, but provenancing a picture isn't about what a thing is that is in the picture - more about how and why its appearance is as it is... all of it.
I already have pretty extensive databases of headdresses (both male and female), faces, body types, tunics, etc. I try to consider all these factors. What I lack is the time to write it all up.
