Description

A terracotta figurine of a standing human figure against a plain grey backdrop. The head is tall and flat-topped with a broad nose, a small mouth and projecting ears. The arms are bent with hands near the sides, a small applied disc-like ornament sits on the chest, and the body narrows to a long column-like lower part with a flared base.
