Description

A tall, grey-brown terracotta figure stands upright with its arms held close to the body. Its head has a flat, hat-like cap with a raised projection on top and a knob at one side, and the face projects forward in a pointed profile. The body narrows toward a flared base, and a crack crosses the waist; it is photographed against a pale backdrop with a print border.
