Description

A worn limestone figure shown seated, with arms folded across the body and a rounded, almost featureless head rising from broad shoulders. The body is heavy and blocky, and a broken fragment of the base lies at the lower left. The stone is photographed against a plain grey backdrop, with pale lines marking the edges of the broken pieces.
