ds head of a male figurine with very distinctive and unique features. It is probably an indicator to its function as a personal portrait of someone. In addition to the distinctiveness of its features, there is emphasis on showing the moustache. The figurine is wearing a turban like headdress which is typical for this period. The nose is well defined, and the interesting aspect is that the eyes and the moustache are represented in black, and the head dress has a black line in the middle and the top part, so as to give it authenticity and dimension. This representation is very realistic and very expressive, hence giving the impression of a portrait representation.
This man with a turban is dedicated in the UNICUM gallery to James L. Walker
