Description

A carved stone head with a short neck stub, shown in profile facing right. The face has a long straight nose, full lips and a rounded chin, and the hair is arranged in deep rows of curls over the side of the head beneath a band across the top. The surface is pitted and weathered, with a projecting piece broken off at the crown, set against a plain grey backdrop with cloth draped at the left.
