Description
What is amazing about figures like this one is that, reduced to the most sketchy anatomical details and wearing little more than their jewelry, they manage to radiate a very tangible human warmth. This piece is quite sensuous to the touch--as if the orange slip terracotta is glowing from within. - (PF.0508)
