Description

A standing terracotta figure with a tall, pointed top to the head, a flat face with a prominent nose and small ears. One arm is bent across the chest, holding a small irregular object, while the other arm hangs at the side. The body is a tall column that widens toward a wide base, and the figure is photographed alone against a plain pale background.
