Description

A tall terracotta figurine stands upright on a flat base, with a cylindrical body and a head wearing a cap with side flaps. The face has a pointed nose and a moustache, and the arms hang at the sides with the hands shaped at the ends. A crack runs across the neck, and the figure is photographed against a plain grey backdrop.
