Description

A terracotta bust of a bearded male figure wearing a helmet with a row of small round studs across the crown. The face has wide, almond-shaped eyes and a flat beard, and the arms are folded across a V-shaped garment at the chest. The surface shows cracks and losses, especially on the left arm and shoulders, and the bust is shown against a light grey backdrop.
