Description

A carved stone head shown in profile facing left, with short curled hair swept back over the brow and ear. The neck is cut off above a plain block base, where a scale bar and a number label are set against the stone. The photograph is mounted on a light card with a border, against a plain grey backdrop, and the stone shows some wear and dark marks on the face.
