The sculpture depicted is a relief of a male figure standing. He is nude, muscular, and holds a bow in his right hand and a lion's skin in his left hand. There is detailed rendering of his curly hair and beard. The sculpture is made of bronze-colored metal and is presented on a rectangular plaque with curved top corners. The figure is carved to capture light and shadow, highlighting muscle and drapery texture, providing a three-dimensional effect against the flat background.
