Description

A stone figure in a long, plain robe stands with its head broken off and both arms bent across the chest, the hands gripping a vertical rod or staff. The surface is weathered and pitted, with chips along the shoulders and right side. It is photographed against a pale plain background, standing on a flat surface with a small dark block beside its feet.
