This is a photograph of a small statue. The figure looks like a child with a woman’s body—one arm holds a bird to its chest, the other rests at its side. Its hair is pulled back, and it stands on a simple pedestal. The statue is made to look soft and rounded, almost like marble. The photo is in black and white, so the details are muted but clear.
