Description

Four pale sculpted heads stand in a row on a light shelf, three on dark square bases and the central one on a dark turned pedestal. The two heads on the left have short hair and faces turned slightly upward, and the head on the far right is worn. Handwritten numbers are written on the shelf front and small paper labels are fixed to the bases, with a faint reflection in the glass below.
