Description

A terracotta figure stands on a flared base, wearing a headdress with two upright projections and a small knob on top. Its face has large almond-shaped eyes, a straight nose and a small mouth, and a notched band runs diagonally from one shoulder across the chest. One arm hangs at the side and the other is bent with the hand on the chest, against a grey backdrop.
