Description
Limestone cinerary urn in the form of a man seated on a typical Etruscan chair, wearing a long tunic and shoes. Traces of red paint survive on the skin, and black on the hair and beard. The urn was carved in four pieces, the lower part hollowed out to contain ashes. Two arms once fitted into sockets at the elbows, but are now missing.
73 photos taken (through glass) in May 2019 with a Sony a6000 and processed in Agisoft Metashape.
