Female Figure of a Court Entertainer Dancing
A smiling terracotta woman in a tall, flat-topped hat with flower ornaments kneels and sweeps one long sleeve high above her head, while her other hand rests at her waist. Traces of red and green pigment cling to the sculpted robes, which fall in soft folds.
Look closer: Small flower ornaments decorate the front of the tall hat.
