Description:
|
The figure has been minimalized by abstraction and simplification of the details. The white pigment on the clay suggests the figure was painted with a white material and probably painted with earthen pigments. The black clay areas on the clay marks the spot where the flames from the fire touched the clay.

|
Materials:
