Description

Two standing terracotta figurines are shown side by side against a plain grey backdrop. Each has a tall, pointed head with a small projecting nose and ears, a narrow neck, and short arms modelled as flat projections against the body. The bodies taper into a long cylindrical shape ending in a flared, flat base, and the smooth grey-brown surface shows only slight marks.
