Description

A standing limestone statue of a female figure, photographed from the front against a pale background. The head wears a band or headdress with hair at the sides, and the eyes are lowered; the nose is broken and the surface is pitted and worn. One arm is bent at the waist with the hand near the hip, and the figure stands on a flat plinth resting on a strip of card.
