Description

A standing limestone statue of a human figure, seen from the front against a plain grey backdrop. The head has short hair and a worn face, and the long garment has vertical folds, with one arm hanging at the side and the other bent up toward the chest. The figure stands on a rough block base set on two small blocks, and the surface is pitted and weathered.
