Statuette

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Statuette by Seibo. Dark statue of a woman standing on a pile of skulls wearing a cloth wrapped around her waist with a metal belt. She has both arms raised. Her right hand clutching a fruit or flower. Two snakes are wrapped around her body, with their heads on either side of her face. The statuette stands on a flat circular base. The woman's torso and head are tilted back. Her facial features are scrunched. Her stomach is exposed and protruding outward. The woman's body position and facial expression appear strained. The background is light gray.
