The sculpture depicts several figures engaged in an aquatic setting. A muscular male figure sits on a sea creature with a raised trident. Surrounding him are other human and hybrid creatures, including a large snake-like beast and a woman partially submerged in waves. The relief is carved on a circular dark metal plate, showing signs of age, wear, and contrast between the figures and the background.
