Description

Side view of a tall terracotta statue standing on a wooden base, photographed against a draped cloth. The head is long with a raised, tapering crown, a pointed nose and an ear in relief. A ridged collar runs over the shoulders, the arms are held close to the body, and a raised pouch-like panel sits at the waist above a long, narrowing lower body.
