Description

A headless limestone figure sits on a stepped block base, one arm bent with the hand resting on the block. The pale surface is worn and flaked in patches, and folds of drapery run down the body. A number label is written on the top step of the base, and the object stands on a cloth-covered surface in front of a draped grey backdrop.
