Description

A carved stone head of a statue, seen from the front, with large heavy-lidded eyes, a short nose and a closed mouth. The hair is rows of tight curls over the forehead, falling in masses beside the face to the shoulders. A pale line crosses the neck, and the print is mounted on a cream card with a border.
