Figure of Mongol

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The sculpture depicts a standing figure with a weathered appearance, likely made of stone. The figure is wearing a long-sleeved garment and a long skirt. A belt cinches at the waist. The figure's arms are crossed in front. A hat or head covering with a curved brim sits atop the figure's head. The figure has long hair. The figure stands on a small rectangular base. The background is a gradient from dark gray to light gray. The figure appears to be titled "Figure of Mongol". The style suggests it could be by artist unknown.
