Description

A full-length limestone statue of a standing woman, photographed against a dark backdrop. Her head wears a high, ridged headdress, and a long garment falls in vertical pleated folds with arms bent at the sides. The surface is weathered and chipped, and the lower part of the figure is broken and rests on a rough stone base near the bottom edge of the print.
