Description

A clay bust photographed against a plain pale background in side view. A large face in profile on the right has a long nose, a heavy-lidded eye and a flat, wide cap-like top; a smaller profile face rises behind it on the left, and a tab-like ear is attached at the side. The rounded base has a smooth surface with some cracks and chips, and a number label sits at the lower right.
