Figure
Figure of a woman, pearlware, on a square base, the figure standing on a rocky outcrop, classically attired in flowing draperies with a long cloak over a long low-cut tunic, the figure has long waving hair gathered in a knot at the nape of the neck from which it flows down the back, the figure holds a pitcher by her side in one hand, the other arm broken off, one foot visible beneath the draperies; left in the white and glazed, the glaze has pooled in the folds of the draperies giving them a bluish tinge, a corner of the base cracked and repaired.
