Description

A marble statue of a female figure, photographed against a plain grey backdrop. The head is tilted to one side beneath a bun of wavy hair, the arms are broken off at the shoulders and upper arms, and the surface is weathered with darker stains. The torso leans forward over one bent thigh, with a thick support below running down to a white plaster base.
