About this work

This statue shows a standing figure with smooth, carved features. The person has a tall, rounded headpiece and a calm face with slightly smiling lips. Their body is wrapped in detailed, draped clothing, with one arm bent and the other resting by their side. The figure’s pose is balanced and serene, with careful carving in the folds of the fabric. This photo was likely taken in the early 1920s, showing a sculpture that’s over 600 years old. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more sculptures like this.
