Description

A small terracotta figure stands upright on a flat base, photographed straight on against a pale background. It has a tall, elongated head with a pinched nose and small ear-like projections, sloping shoulders, and arms held close to a narrow body. A small lump of clay sits near the base, and the surface is plain and worn.
