This black-and-white photograph shows a marble statue of a woman holding a fruit. She stands on a rectangular pedestal, her body facing forward and her head turned slightly to her right. Her left hand is on her chest, while her right hand holds the fruit up to her face. The statue is carved from a single piece of marble, with intricate details visible in the woman's hair and the folds of her clothing. The pedestal is plain, with a rough texture that contrasts with the smoothness of the statue. The photograph is a detailed study of the statue, highlighting its textures and forms.
