The sculpture depicts a human figure in a flowing draped garment that covers the body down to the feet. The figure is standing upright with one hand raised to the chest and the other hand partially hidden by the fabric. The sculpture is in tones of beige and cream, suggesting a material like stone or painted finish to resemble marble. The garment shows detailed folds and texture, and the figure has short curly hair. The sculpture stands on a base that resembles a naturalistic form, such as rocks or waves. The proportions and stance of the figure give it an ancient and classical style, possibly inspired by Greek or Roman art.
