The female figure presents the torso almost in profile facing left, placing the left shoulder uncovered in the foreground. With her left hand she holds the drapery that partially covers it, turning her head back to the right in three-quarters. The thick hair is decorated with bunches and grape leaves. Fine work in high relief. Very good condition.
