Description

A carved stone head in left profile, with a smooth face, a straight nose and short hair arranged in layered wavy curls. A band passes over the hair above the ear, and the head rests on a broken neck and shoulder block that stands out pale against the plain grey backdrop. A number label is written along the lower edge of the mount.
