Description

A headless, armless marble statue of a standing figure, shown frontally against a plain grey backdrop. The figure wears a short garment with a belt, deep folds across the chest and bunched drapery over the hips, and the legs end in broken edges. Thin metal rods hold the sculpture up on a plain rectangular base.
