Description
This powerful female figure, softly modeled with full volumes, is heavily adorned with jewels and flowers. In her right hand she grasps a fruit and her left rests on her hip. A sense of movement is achieved through her raised left leg, curving pleat lines, swinging beads of her necklace, and her turning head.
