Description

A small terracotta head with a long, plain neck stands on a pale rectangular block base. The face has simply modelled features, with a pronounced nose and mouth, and the top of the head is rough and worn. The photograph is a print on a pale card mount, set against a plain grey backdrop, with light scratches across the image.
