Mortuary Figures of the Zodiac Signs
Twelve weathered, brown and gray figurines of animals representing zodiac signs stand in two rows. The figurines have a worn, aged appearance with visible signs of aging and wear. They are posed upright on two legs like humans. Their heads are raised and turned to the right. They have no arms. The background is dark grey, transitioning to lighter grey at the bottom. The overall impression suggests these are ancient or historical artifacts.
