Description

A fragment of a stone head with a rounded top and a modelled ear in relief on the side, its surface pitted and weathered. The lower part of the head is broken away, and the piece stands on a small dark wooden block that casts a shadow on the pale backdrop. The grey print sits on a cream card mount with handwritten marks along the bottom edge.
