Lead figure of a rooster
A small, corroded lead figure of a rooster, shown in profile against a plain grey background. Its body and head sit at the left, while a fan of ridged tail feathers spreads to the right, with pitted, weathered surfaces.
Look closer: A broken edge near the lower body where a piece of the lead has been lost.
