ANTHROPOMORPHIC FIGURE - Small sculpture in metal alloy, depicting a schematic anthropomorphic figure with a tubular body, an elongated head with prominent eyes and a marked nose, one arm raised holding an elongated element. The figure stands on a domed base, rhythmic with cords and zigzag bands, topped by a series of lateral openwork rings. Darkened and homogeneous patina, with good readability of the volumes. Due to the filiform treatment and the use of applied cords, it may resemble the Dhokra sculptural tradition; such a hypothesis cannot be confirmed by photographs alone.
