Description

A small terracotta figurine of a standing figure is shown frontally against a pale background. The head is broken away, leaving a rough, crumbly top, and the arms are bent with the hands held at the chest. A band marks the waist above a broad, rounded lower body with the legs close together. The surface is worn and pitted.
