The sculpture depicts a clown figure standing next to a barrel, holding a whip in one hand. A small dog stands on its hind legs beside the clown, appearing to perform a trick. The sculpture is colored in shades of grey and muted gold, with the barrel painted in a deep red. The material of the sculpture appears to be metal, and it has a vintage, mechanical look, akin to an old automaton or a coin bank. The base upon which the figures are mounted is rectangular and also metallic. The clown wears a pointed hat.
