Description

A carved limestone figure lies on its side, its head resting on a raised arm, with a long draped garment falling in folds over the body. The figure sits on a dark rectangular base, and a roughly worked block of stone supports the left end. A number label is on the base, a scale bar runs along the lower left edge, and a small printed label card sits at the lower right.
