Description

This statuette represents a squatting man in a cloak wrapping the whole of his figure, but leaving the right shoulder and arm exposed; on his head is a wig covering his ears. The body is painted red, the whites and the cloak are white, the wig, brows, eyelids and pupils are black. If judging by the posture, this is an image of the tomb owner being an element of a model boat; the man was probably shown sitting in a cabin or under a canopy.
