Description

A grey limestone statuette of a standing figure is photographed in side profile against a plain grey backdrop, facing right. The head has a banded hairstyle with long locks falling behind the ear, and the arms hang close to the body, one hand resting near the hip. The surface is pitted and worn, with a visible break at the neck and a flat base at the bottom of the frame.
