Figure of a Chapel Entrance
The sculpture depicts a human figure from the back. The figure wears a round cap. A long-sleeved garment has a highly textured front. The garment resembles a cape. The cape covers the figure from the neck to just above the knees. The base of the sculpture includes stairs leading to a small archway. A second archway sits to the right of the stairs. The right side features a bas-relief of a person's head and torso. The left side features several elongated vertical ovals. The sculpture appears to be made of plaster or gypsum. The background is gray.
