Description

A terracotta figurine stands upright, with a tall tapering headdress, a large round eye in relief, a pointed nose and a small ear on the side of the head. The arms are held close to the body, and the figure narrows into a long cylindrical base with a flared foot that is chipped at its lower edge. It is photographed against a plain grey backdrop, with a number label in the lower right corner.
