Description

A close view of a small carved figure, its rounded head with a hollow eye-like depression and two upright curved projections rising from the top. The pale surface is mottled with dark weathered patches, and the object fills most of the frame against a grey-brown background. Blue discolouration appears along the left edge and at the bottom.
