Size 12-5/8 inches H. (14-3/4 inches on custom mount)

Condition: Head repaired and abraded.

Provenance: Carmel NY Private collection, acquired in Israel from Nurit and Denny Pinkus in 1984, with COA.

The smiling mouth and stiff pose of this statue are shared with contemporaneous Archaic Greek kouroi. For similar, see V.
