Description: A lot of attention to detail has gone into the production of the piece but the execution is decidedly mediocre. The musculature is emphasised, particularly on the rear, by broad straight depressions, either horizontal or vertical, which almost divide the torso into sections. The large vertical depression on each side of the waist give the figure an almost emaciated appearance. The nipples are small circular depressions. The arms too long. Fingers are depicted on both hands. Large head wings at the side of the head. Deep wide groove for mouth. Stands with weight on left leg and torso tilted slightly to the left.
