- Tanım
- The leg and paw from a reclining lion are extended flat on the worked surface of a base. There are large flat chisel strokes on the leg, which is finished with multiple chisel cross strokes. The exterior of the base shows large point and gouge. According to A. R. Seager, the piece would fit into the lost area of Cat. 31 (Figs. 119-122), which has similar workmanship, but does not make a join. It is probably from Cat. 31 or a counterpart piece.
- Condition
Large-grained “local” marble, weathered yellow, friable.
Surface discolored yellowish-red by cement from reuse. Fragmentary. Old breaks except for bit at top l.
