The sculpture features a central figure standing on a layered and embellished base. The figure appears to be a classical or mythological character, nude with a draped garment partly covering the lower body, accompanied by a bird beside their left foot. The figure has an arm raised to their chest and is looking upwards. Below this figure, the sculpture includes a large ornate urn with handles and intricate detailing. The base of the sculpture displays two smaller figures on either side, resembling cherubic children, along with scroll motifs and a prominent central face. The entire piece is constructed from bronze and exhibits a dark brown patina.
