The sculpture depicts a human face surrounded by ornate acanthus leaf patterns. The face has classical features and is framed by swirling motifs extending from the top of the head downwards. The sculpture is made from a dark material with a polished finish. The carving creates a play of light and shadow, enhancing its three-dimensionality. The sculpture is meant to be viewed from the front to appreciate its symmetrical and ornate design.
