The sculpture depicts a human-like head with exaggerated features including a prominent nose and two small horns on the forehead. The head is topped with a stylized depiction of hair that appears to flow downwards. The face bears a wide, somewhat mischievous grin, with pronounced cheekbones and a deep-set eye visible. The sculpture is rendered in a medium that has a striated, woody texture. The color palette consists predominantly of browns, with darker shades in the recesses and lighter highlights emphasizing the contours and anatomy of the face. Overall, the sculpture has an elongated appearance, with features that are slightly exaggerated compared to typical human proportions.
