The edge of the chlamys is brought over the lower left forearm, creating bunched folds between the wlbow and wrist. These fall vertically from the outer arm. In back folds are broad, shallow and unvaried. Some rasp marks are discernible on drapery surface. Picked surface and 2 drill holes at shoulder pin area. | |
