Sculpture of a woman "with a hood"

The sculpture represents the image of a woman with uneven proportions: the head and torso are almost equal in size, the legs are about three times longer than the body. Despite the completeness of the statuette, the face, which is separated from the rest of the head, is not fully detailed. Headdress, highlighted in high relief, frames the face not in the form of an oval bead, as usual, but in the form of a rectangle. On the contrary, a rounded line goes down the shoulders and the back of the headdress. All of these gives the impression of fluffy hair, which is cut straight in the forehead in the form of a bang, and on the back side they are laid in a curved grid. The head in its parietal part is smooth, and below it is completely covered with deep wavy lines. The small breasts of the usual, slightly pendulous form, are indicated with shallow carved lines and are given a weak relief. The hands are on the tummy. On a flat tummy from waist to foot, two carved lines are drawn, denoting something like an apron. The sciatic part is raised, but the pelvis is narrow. Long legs taper downwards and end with rounding. The legs in their lower part are separated by an elongated, oval-shaped hole.
