Molded in tan-colored terracotta, a person kneels and leans forward against an L-shaped stump-like form in this freestanding sculpture. The person’s head is to our left in this view, and the breasts are visible. She leans forward onto her forearms with her wrists crossed, so her hands are near her chin and closed mouth. She has short hair and full lips. The area around her eyes is loosely sculpted. One knee is bent and the other is mostly straight as if the foot were reaching toward the ground. The stump is especially loosely formed, and the sculpture sits on a wooden plank. The piece is photographed against a gray background.
