Description

A terracotta figure of a standing human, photographed in side view against a plain grey backdrop. The head wears a flat, cap-like covering with a turned-up edge, and the face has a prominent nose and a visible ear. The arms are bent with the hands clasped at the chest, above a narrow, tapering body that flares into a splayed base with some surface wear.
