The sculpture depicts a seated male figure with a head of curly hair and a beard. The figure is partially draped in a cloth that covers the lower part of his body, with intricate folds and creases. The figure's arms are resting across his lap, and one leg is slightly extended. The sculpture is predominantly a golden color, suggesting it is made of a metal material. The texture of the work and attention to detail in the hair, facial features, and drapery of the cloth contribute to the overall realism of the piece. It stands out against a dark background, enhancing the reflective quality of the material.
