Description

A standing limestone statue shown alone against a plain grey backdrop. The head and neck are broken off at the top, and the figure wears a long garment with vertical folds over the torso. The arms hang close to the body with broken edges, and the narrow lower part ends in a damaged base resting on a flat surface, outlined in white on the print.
