The sculpture depicts a scene with several figures. One central figure stands in a contrapposto pose with their head slightly tilted forward, hands crossed, and appears partially nude with drapery around the waist. Another figure gestures towards the central figure. Additional figures in robes stand to the side, observing. Above the central figures, a figure hovers, releasing a small bird mid-flight. The background features foliage, with a tall tree or plant with extended leaves. The relief panel is crafted from dark brown material, likely bronze or a similar metal, with an aged patina that highlights the texture and depth of the carved details, giving a reflective quality where the ridges catch the light.
