Description

A terracotta statue of a bearded standing male figure, with a cap or headband, a long garment with incised lines and a triangular pattern at the hem, and bare feet. One arm is bent up across the chest, and fine cracks across the body show the piece has been broken and mended. It stands on a low square plinth against a plain grey wall.
