Description

A frontal view of a female bust with a rounded cap-like headdress edged by a band of small ridges, a calm face with a slight smile, and a double beaded necklace over the shoulders. The breasts are modelled, the arms are missing, and the dark grey-brown surface shows cracks, chips and a broken right shoulder. The bust stands against a plain pale background.
