A small terracotta figurine depicting a standing human figure.

The terracotta figurine shows a human figure standing upright with arms crossed over the chest. The facial features are minimally detailed, typical of ancient Egyptian art. The figure wears what appears to be a long garment, and the surface texture indicates an unglazed, rough finish. This style is often associated with practical or ceremonial objects.
