The sculpture above the window depicts a male figure in a reclining pose holding a long object. His body is muscular and nude, with flowing hair that falls behind him. The sculpture is carved in a relief fashion, with the figure set against a backdrop of swirling elements. The color of the sculpture is a monochromatic tan or light brown, matching the stone material of the architecture. Positioned in an archway above closed shutters, the sculpture is an ornamental pediment above the window. It is an integral part of the building’s facade, contributing to its classical aesthetic.
