Description: | This female figure stands on toes, with knees slightly bent and arms folded across the chest. The figure is naturalistic in appearance as legs, feet, breasts and nose have been sculpted. No other facial features have been defined. Incised lines delineate the pelvic triangle and grooves separate the arms and define the legs. A groove also runs down the back to signify the spine. The large head is disproportionate with the rest of the body and the top edge has been flattened. The head is oval in shape and is tilted back slightly. The figure is made of marble and is cream coloured. A white/brown raised surface deposit covers the figure creating a rough texture. A red pigment is apparent around the neckline and base of the neck.
