The sculpture depicts a muscular nude male figure with curly hair, holding a large lion above his head. The male figure is standing in a powerful stance with his back to the viewer, and his muscles are well-defined. To his left, there is a tree with a serpent coiled around it. The sculpture is crafted from bronze, giving it a dark, metallic brown color and a polished finish. The sculpture is a rectangular plaque with a small hole towards the top center. The entire scene is in high relief.
