Description

A standing terracotta figure is shown in side profile against a pale grey backdrop. The head wears a flat, cap-like headdress with broken edges, and one arm is bent with the hand raised toward the chest. The long, tapering robe has applied vertical bands down the front, and the matt grey surface shows small pits.
