Bernard Westmacott

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicts a rooster with elaborate plumage. It is shown in a side profile, standing proudly with its tail feathers fanning out behind it in a curved and decorative manner. The rooster has a well-defined crest on top of its head, and its wings are detailed with intricate patterns. The sculpture appears to be monochrome, consisting of shades of gray.
