Description
wood, stained greyish brown patina, characteristic hairdo with shaved contours, tribal marks on temples and belly, accentuation of collarbone and knees, dam. (right eye, nose), missing parts (feet), breakage (right wrist), abrasion of paint, cracks (right side of the head), metal plate;
although the body is rather meager and the collarbones are visible, the figure surely has something to do with fertility.
