Description

A standing terracotta figurine photographed against a plain grey backdrop on a light card mount. The head is covered by a veil falling to the shoulders, the face has a pointed nose and small features, and the breasts are modelled. The arms hang at the sides and the body narrows to a long garment with vertical folds, ending in a flat base, with the surface pitted and chipped, especially at the lower left.
