The sculpture depicts a group of four figures. Two centrally positioned figures capture most of the composition's attention. The central figure is holding another figure who appears reclined or possibly lifeless, highlighted by the positioning of the limbs and overall relaxed posture. Other figures are gathered around, suggesting a cohesive group interaction. The sculpture is crafted from a material that appears bronze, attributed to its dull brown color and the textured metallic surface. The scene is intricately detailed within a relief carved on an oval background. The figures are in a narrative pose with clear delineations of drapery and body forms.
