Description

A terracotta figurine group of three animals stands in a row on a rectangular plinth, the nearest one in front. They have pointed ears, long muzzles and slender legs, and the surface shows cracks and some small losses. The plain pale backdrop sets off the object, which is photographed from the front left.
