Description

A full-length limestone statue of a standing woman, photographed against a black background and set on a rectangular plinth. She wears a close-fitting head covering with curled hair, an ear ornament and a bracelet, and her long drapery falls in pleated folds. The surface is worn, with losses at the left shoulder and along the garment, and her sandalled feet are visible at the base.
