Curatorial note
A partially-draped female figure wearing a harness or cuirass stands on an ornamental pedestal, hands behind her back, supporting a capital covered in foliage. The panel is possibly taken from the ornamental window setting of a missing panel of the same date. It is similar to SG16 and is part of a set comprising SG11, SG12, SG16 and SG17.
