Descriptions

Description
Standing robed figure with drapery over his left shoulder and left arm which covers the lower half of his body. The figure stands in a contrapposto position with his right knee bent. The back is unfinished. Some of the features of the face (eyes, nose, mouth) are well-defined. However, the hair and ears are not as well-defined. The right arm and the left hand are missing. There are no repairs and no restoration. There are two blind cracks: one extends from the right armpit to a horizontal fold in the drapery; the other runs across and down the top of the thigh.
