The sculpture is a relief depicting a bearded figure emerging from a rectangular tomb with a triumphant posture, holding a staff with a banner in one hand. The figure appears to be wrapped in a flowing garment, partially covering its body, and it is shown with one arm raised. Surrounding the central figure are three human figures, seemingly warriors, each holding a shield with ornate detailing. One of them appears to be lying on the ground beside the tomb, while the other two are standing. The background features a rocky landscape with clouds in the sky. The sculpture is made of metal, likely bronze, giving it a reddish-brown color with patina visible over parts of the surface. The work is intricately detailed, with careful attention to the folds of the cloth, facial features, and textures on the shields.
