Figure

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white photograph of a sculpture titled "Figure" by an unknown artist. The sculpture depicts a man sitting cross-legged on the floor, wearing a head covering, a striped robe with wide sleeves, and no shoes. His right leg is extended to the side. He is holding a tool in both hands and appears to be working on a round object in front of him. The man's facial features are defined, with a prominent nose and chin. His eyes are cast downward toward the object. He wears a necklace around his neck and has earrings. The background of the image is a plain, light-colored surface.
