Description

A small terracotta figurine of a standing figure with a rounded head and a smooth cap-like top, arms bent so the hands meet across the chest. The compact lower body widens toward a flat base, and the surface is pitted with small holes and worn in places. It is photographed upright against a plain pale background, filling most of the frame.
