This is a black-and-white photo of a broken stone statue. Only the upper body remains—no arms or legs. The figure’s head is missing, leaving a rough edge where it was cut off. The cloth draped over the shoulders is carved in stiff folds, and the chest shows worn, uneven stone. The photo itself looks old, with a faded, slightly yellowed tone. The statue’s rough surface suggests it’s been damaged over time. Want to see more? Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum.
