Description

The head is broken off a large wooden statue that had been over 1 m. high. The face is badly damaged, its features being hardly recognisable. The curled spherical wig covers the ears. The greater part of plaster coating is lost; traces of black pigment remain on the wig and eyes, and of red pigment on the face.
