Description

A headless standing figure in a long draped garment, one arm bent at its side, stands in an excavated pit beside a block of broken stone. To the right, three large stone vessels lie in the soil: a stemmed piece with a broad top, a tall narrow jar with a small handle, and a rounded vessel with a broken rim. Loose stone fragments lie in the foreground.
