A female figure dressed in a white garment decorated with red-orange floral designs leans against a pedestal on which rests an urn. The piece appears to be directly modeled after a Ralph Wood figure, and may be the work of Enoch Wood (1759-1840). It is less carefully painted than earlier works of the Wood Family.
