The eagle's head is painted in golden-yellow hues with darker shades on the beak, transitioning into darker wood tones for the feathers blending into the wood behind it. The color palette includes earthy yellows, browns, and hints of dark purple and grey. The eagle's head faces left with an open beak, displaying detailed carving work.
