Description

A modelled terracotta figure seen from the side, standing on a thick ring-shaped base. Its rounded head has a tall cap-like or hair form at the top, and one arm bends across the body with the hand near the lower left. A small curved projection stands out beside the hand, and the rough, slightly worn surface is shown against a plain light background.
