Small Stone Fountain

Ursula Lauderdale

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture in the image shows a seated figure with its back to the viewer, featuring intricate detailing including a textured pattern on the figure's attire. The design incorporates natural elements such as branches with large flower-like structures and a serpent or vine wrapping around it. The sculpture is made of a grey stone-like material, giving it a weathered appearance, typical of materials like limestone or sandstone. It appears to be a relief carving on a flat surface, creating depth and dimension through light and shadow play.
