Description

Four small terracotta figurines stand side by side on a pale surface against a plain grey backdrop. Each has a tall, pointed head with a pinched nose and small ear pieces, a narrow body with arms modelled close to the sides, and a flared base. The smooth grey surfaces show chips and worn patches, and a printed mark sits in the lower right corner of the print.
