Description

A standing female statue seen in profile, facing right, with hair bound by a band and curled at the sides. She wears a belted, pleated garment with a drapery overfold at the hip, and one arm is bent close to the body. The figure stands on a plain base beside a scale bar, against a pale backdrop, with handwritten blue labels on the card mount.
