Description

A tall, narrow limestone sculpture from Mersinaki, shown upright against a plain pale background. The body is covered with closely spaced vertical grooves, and a diagonal break runs across the upper part, where the top slopes and is chipped at one side. Two rounded blocks at the base look like feet, standing on a rough stone plinth.
