Seated Female Figure

Cleveland Museum of Art

The figure is a seated female sculpture with a light-brown body. The figure has a bald head with small ears on the sides. The eyes are oval-shaped with a line underneath and teardrop-shaped patterns below. A horizontal line stretches across the middle of the face with similar designs on either side, and the mouth is a horizontal line. The figure has no arms but has shoulder-like protrusions from which the arms emerge. The hands are clasped together. The body features various designs, including stripes on the upper arms, forearms, and legs. The figure sits with the left leg bent and under the body, and the right leg is bent with the foot visible. The background is dark gray, with the figure casting a shadow. The overall style is characteristic of ancient art. Seated Female Figure by an unknown artist.
