Limestone Cypro-Greek II head, Vouni III-IV (V. 210)
Description
A carved stone head in left profile, with a rounded cap covering the crown, a row of wavy locks along the forehead and a spiral curl beside the ear. The surface is pitted and worn, and the nose and lips show clearly in profile. The print is mounted on a pale card with an octagonal cut-out, with a handwritten number label below and parts of two other photographs at the lower edges.
