A female figure seated on a rocky outcrop. She is draped from the waist down and her left foot is extended forward. Her torso twists to the right, but she turns her head to the left and holds a round object in her lap with her right hand. She extends her left hand in front of her and wears an armlet on her upper left arm. Her curly hair is gathered at the top and back of her head. There is a large vent hole located at the back of the rock and the whole composition rests on a flat rectangular base. Polychromy consists of blue for the rock; pink and red for the drapery; red for the shoes, hair and pupils; and coral for the skin.
