Description

A bust-length sculpture of a bearded, older man, carved in pale stone with deeply modelled curls in the hair and beard and furrows across the forehead. The head sits on a short neck and a square rectangular plinth, photographed against a plain black background. The surface shows some speckling and dark marks from the print.
