Description

Photograph of a standing limestone statue of a woman, shown from the side and slightly from behind against a black background. She wears a band or cap around her head, a long garment with vertical folds, and a bracelet on one wrist, while her hand rests at her hip gathering the drapery. The figure stands on a rectangular plinth with its feet visible, and the pale surface looks weathered.
