Description

A life-size carved head of a bearded man with short, curled hair, shown from the front and slightly turned, on a dark textured base. The stone is pale and the face has deep-set eyes, a strong nose and a full beard; the neck is cut off flat at the bottom. The dark backdrop isolates the head.
