Celtic Granite Carved Bust of a Female Figure

About the Item

CELTIC GRANITE CARVED BUST OF A FEMALE FIGURE ORIGIN: FRANCE PERIOD: CELTE Height: 46 cm Length: 28 cm Depth: 16 cm Made of granite The body shapes of this figure are scarcely outlined and very stylised. The head is not sculpted and only the two breasts are visible. The two arms fall to the front of the statue and the hands are resting on the stomach.
