Shallow curving folds suggest drapery tightly drawn across a sharp curve of the body most likely hip, arm, or lower leg. Shallow folds are finely carved and polished on front surface, slightly more roughly finished on side, suggesting differential weathering and/or transition to back side of sculpture. | |
