Description

A tall figure of a standing human, shown from the front against a grey backdrop. It has a flat, disc-like cap, a long neck, a narrow face with a pointed chin, and arms held close to the sides ending in simple hands. The body tapers to a long, flared base, and the dark surface shows scattered marks and cracks, especially near the foot.
