Description

A standing stone statue of a female figure seen in left profile, her wavy hair bound up at the back and a drape falling over the shoulders and across the arms. The lower body is broken away below the hips and the surface is worn and chipped. The statue stands on a dark plinth, with a measuring scale and a small label along the bottom edge, against a plain grey backdrop.
