Description

Two Staffordshire figures. Lord Byron is sitting down with his right leg over his left, his right hand resting on his right thigh and left hand holding the woman's right hand. The woman, the Maid of Athens (Teresa), is standing. The Maiden had a crack through both elbows, waist, part of her headdress, and her nose has broken off.
