Description

A tall, pale, unpainted standing figure shown in profile facing left, with a close-fitting cap and a long narrow body that widens toward the base. One arm is bent forward at the waist, and the face has a prominent nose and simply carved planes. A crack crosses the neck and the base is chipped at the lower left, set against a plain grey backdrop.
