DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: Hollow cast bronze, with additional pouring to imitate crude casting. The stocky figure is draped in ample folds of a tunic and stands holding, at arms length with both hands, a short pricket candlestick. The pose is simple, the left leg bending slightly forward, a slight contraposto of the body and the head turned slightly to the right. The head is crowned with a laurel wreath having a rose in the front and at the back. The face and arms are very poorly modelled, but the drapery is of high quality. The hem of the robe has a narrow border decoration. There are the remains of the wings still projecting from the shoulders. The hair hangs in thick ringlets around her neck.
