Description

A weathered limestone sculpture fragment rests on a pale surface, its rough, pitted texture clearly visible. A long curved form extends to the left like a limb, while on the right a flat, rounded head with a projecting nose rises from a block-like base. A dark hollow opens between the two parts, and a torn white tag appears at the lower left.
