Description

A headless limestone statue torso on a white plinth against a dark background. A bead necklace with a round pendant lies across the chest, and a small quadruped animal is carved in relief lower down, above a hand at the left side. The weathered surface is pitted and chipped along the top, and a smaller carved fragment with a number label stands at the right.
