Head of a young man
Files
Abstract
Clay head, hollow, depicts a youth with curly hair. The pupil of the eyes is concave; the eyes are set in the head so that the glaze fills in around the eyelids. The nose and eyebrow ridge are clearly defined. The lips are full and straight. The turquoise glaze creates a brown blemish on the left cheekbone and a pool of brown in the hair on the left side.
