Description

A small standing figure carved in limestone, wearing a close-fitting head covering and a long plain garment that falls to the feet. Both arms are bent across the chest, and the hands grip a ring-shaped object. The surface is pitted and worn, and the figure stands on a dark block-shaped base at the bottom right beside a pale tag against a plain grey background.
