Northern Wei Dynasty figurine of an officer wearing a round helmet and a cape of incised lines detailing its folds in a sleeved cloak. His hands rest in front of his chest on a long sword-like weapon. He seems to be letting out a cry. His body and head were cast separately. A white coat covering the entire earthenware lays the base for decorating red paint.
