Description

A pale sculpted head and upper torso seen in profile, facing left. The head wears a close-fitting cap or helmet-like covering, with a long straight nose, a small mouth and a rounded ear. The neck and shoulders are cut off at the bottom of the frame, and cracks and chips are visible on the body against a plain light grey background.
