Dog
A glazed earthenware sculpture of a seated dog, its long neck raised and mouth open, with large rounded ears and stylized eyes. The brown lead glaze pools in places and catches light along the back, legs and curled tail.
Look closer: Small round eyes with incised rings and a row of incised fur strokes along the cheeks.
