Description

A headless standing figure in limestone, shown frontally against a plain pale ground on a grey mount. The arms hang at the sides with the elbows bent, and the body narrows into a long, straight lower part ending in a rough, broken base. The surface is pitted and worn, with darker speckling across the stone.
