Black and white photograph of a sculpture of a sitting lion. The lion is made of dark material, possibly stone or metal, with visible signs of wear and tear, including white patches on its neck and face. It has a large head with a short snout, small eyes, and a mouth that appears to be slightly open. The lion's body is depicted in a sitting position, with its front legs straight and its back legs tucked under its body. Its tail is curled up and back over its body. The background of the image is a light-colored surface with a textured pattern, possibly a tablecloth or other fabric. The overall atmosphere of the image is one of simplicity and focus on the sculpture itself. "Lion".
