The sculpture depicts a muscular, nude male figure fighting a lion on a rectangular bronze plaque. The male figure is in the center grappling with the lion, as the lion's body twists beneath him. In the background are architectural structures, including a classical building with the word "MODELV" partially visible and an archway or coliseum-like structure. The sculpture has a small hole at the top center for hanging or display. The figures and background are detailed, creating a sense of dynamic motion and classical grandeur.
