Crouching Dwarf Musician

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Crouching Dwarf Musician by unknown artist depicts a small, old, brownish-red sculpture of a dwarf-like figure. The figure has a large head with a wide face and ears on the sides. It has its hands clasped together in front of its mouth, with the index fingers pointing up. The figure appears to be sitting in a crouching position with its arms resting on its knees. The sculpture is made of stone or clay and has a rough texture. The background of the image is a plain gray color.
