The forearm is held straight out, the edge of a short-sleeved garment visible at the elbow. The fingers are separated and elegantly modelled, the nails cleanly delineated. A circular hole in the palm of the hand for attachment of a now missing object. The surface with some incrustation and emerald green cuprites, the original surface is still clearly evident, showing traces of scratches from where the sculpture was finished. Intact.
