Description

A frontal photograph of a standing limestone statue of a figure with a rounded, cap-like head covering, a broad face with a large nose and small mouth, and arms held close to the body. The stone surface is worn and pitted, with a crack around the neck and a broken area at the lower left of the base. The statue stands on a flat base against a plain grey background, and the print is mounted on a light card.
