Description

A seated stone statue of a woman, shown full length against a plain grey backdrop. She wears a long gown with a mantle draped over one shoulder and across her lap, and her hair is drawn back from a broad face with large eyes. One hand rests on her lap, the other arm hangs down the side of the throne, and the statue stands on a rectangular plinth with some chipped edges.
