Description

A standing figure in dark grey terracotta with a tall conical cap, a modelled face with heavy brows, a prominent nose and a closed mouth. The arms hang close to the body, and the torso narrows to a flaring base. The surface shows small pits and faint scratches, and the figure is photographed straight on against a plain pale background.
