The image shows a life-sized mannequin head mounted on a wooden pedestal. The mannequin has detailing on its face, with red lips and ringlet-like hair patterns on its sides. The colors are mostly muted and earthy, with a focus on natural wood tones and pale greys. The pedestal consists of a vertical wooden rod connected by a metal ring and supported on a cross-shaped wooden base. The object is centrally positioned against a plain beige background.
