Standing man, nude. Rounded head, bald at top, turned to proper right and slightly downturned. Hair falls in waves at sides down to the shoulder. Short forehead; softly furrowed brow; “squinting” eyes with swollen lids; short nose. Long mustache and beard. Bemused expression. He stands in a slight contrapposto with right leg engaged and left leg bent. The right arm is folded at back, while the left proffers a bunch of grapes, and appears to be draped by a cloth with “swallowtail” folds. Narrow shoulders but muscular torso; visible navel. Small phallus. Three-tiered base with sharp edges, square at front, curved at back. Hollow. Mold-made in a single bivalve mold; likely plaster. Incised detailing. Most of back, except for head and base, cut out as if for enormous venthole; what remains of it has been plastically modeled. Interior was cleaned out with tools; smooth. Join seams visible on interior, but well-hidden on exterior. Fine clay with a few grog inclusions; hard-fired.
