Description

A white stone statue of a standing figure seen in profile, with curled hair forming a wreath-like band and a draped garment falling from the shoulders. One arm is bent across the waist holding drapery, and the other hand is raised to the chest, holding a small object. The statue stands on a dark wooden base with a short support peg beneath it, against a dark backdrop, with a scale bar and a small label along the bottom edge.
