Description

A standing statue in stone, seen in profile facing left, with its hair in curls drawn back under a band and a small earring visible. The long garment falls in vertical folds, and one arm is bent at the waist, holding a fold of drapery against the body. The figure stands on a square plinth with a small number label on its front, photographed against a plain grey backdrop.
