Description

A standing terracotta figurine of a female figure, shown frontally against a plain grey backdrop on a low base. The head has a flat-topped hairstyle framing the face, a necklace with a round pendant sits at the neck, and the arms are held close to the body. The surface is worn and pitted, with pale patches and a lighter band at the foot.
