A Western Asiatic terracotta figure in what is possibly a worship pose with hands pressed together. The head resembles a bird with a protruding beak and out-splayed headdress. The lower body displays a conical shape as though the figure is wearing a long skirt. The base is attached to a square ceramic plinth.
Date: Circa 3rd-2nd millennium BC
From an important Cambridgeshire estate, acquired on the UK art market before 2000, hence by descent.
Fine condition. Some minor chips and cavities to the surfaces. Earthy encrustations present.
