Description

A standing stone statue of a draped figure, shown in side profile facing left, with short curled hair and a garment wrapped across the body. One hand holds a fold of cloth at the hip, and the arm at the right edge is broken off. The figure stands on a rectangular plinth with a small number label, against a plain grey backdrop with a dark shadow to the right.
