Description

A terracotta standing figure, shown full length against a pale backdrop on an oval base. The head has a band across the brow, the face is modelled with eyes, nose and mouth, and both fists are raised at the chest. The short skirt-like garment and legs show many cracks, and the feet are partly broken.
