The sculpture depicts multiple human figures in a classical scene. On the left, an elderly figure stands near a structure resembling an altar or table, reaching towards it with a staff. Next to him, three individuals, two male and one possibly female, move towards a seated figure. Behind the seated figure stands a shield-bearing warrior. The kneeling figure closest to the seated individual gestures in supplication. The figures interact in a dynamic composition. The material appears to be bronze with a rich brown patina. The relief is detailed, with the figures in high relief against a textured background suggesting trees and natural elements. The edges are framed with a decorative border.
