Description

A standing figure carved in limestone, with hair bound by a band and a slight smile, wearing a long cloak with deep folds. One arm is bent across the chest and the other hangs at the side, and the lower part of the figure is broken away. The surface is pitted and worn, and the statue is photographed against a plain grey background with a dark object at the lower left.
