The sculpture depicts a figure standing on a decorated pedestal, striking a dynamic pose with one arm raised and the other bent downward. The figure is adorned in a long, flowing garment with a variety of colors and patterns, including green, blue, yellow, and white, with floral motifs in different parts of the attire. The face of the figure is white with delicate features, and the hair is styled upward in a solid black form. The sculpture appears to be crafted from a glazed ceramic material, giving it a smooth and glossy finish, and it is detailed to convey a sense of movement and elegance. The pedestal below features a crisscross yellow and green pattern that complements the colors found in the figure's attire.
