Description

A woman with short dark hair, wearing a fur stole over a dark top, looks up beside a large reconstructed statue. The statue has a helmet-like headdress and a pieced-together torso with visible cracks and joins. A hand rests on its shoulder, and a sheet of paper lies on a table in the lower right, with another sculpture partly visible in the background.
