The sculpture is a bust depicting the head and upper torso of a person with short, combed-back hair and a stern facial expression. It features a large, radiating halo-like element behind the head. The sculpture is crafted from wood, displaying a natural brown hue that highlights the texture and grain of the material. The details in the wood carving give the appearance of flowing fabric, and there are some ornate elements along the neckline of the clothing. The sculpture conveys a sense of historical or religious significance due to its style and the halo feature. The name "Alvin M. Gaulty - 1939" is inscribed at the bottom.
