Description

A tall, narrow limestone fragment of a standing figure, with a head carved at the top left that has a pointed, beak-like projection. One arm bends across the body with the hand at the waist, and diagonal grooves run over the upper body. The lower part narrows to feet resting on a rough, squared base, shown against a pale background on a card mount.
