Description

A stone head shown in profile, facing left, photographed against a black background on a light-bordered card. The hair is rendered as ridged bands over the crown and drawn back behind the carved ear, and the neck ends bluntly at the bottom. The surface is pitted and pale in places, and the top of the head shows chipping.
