Description

A head sculpture shown in right profile, with a band of leaf-shaped forms set across the top of the head and a twisted, rope-like band running across the lower head below the ear. The features are worn, with the nose and lips still visible, and the surface is pitted and grey. The neck ends in a flat break against a pale background.
