Description

A headless torso carved in pale grey stone, photographed frontally against a plain light background. The figure wears a garment with deep folds and a broad band of drapery across the waist; one arm is bent up at the chest holding a fold of cloth, and the other hangs at the side with the hand partly broken away. The surface is weathered and pitted, and the figure stands on a pale base.
