The sculpture depicts a lion, walking or standing with its right side facing the viewer. The lion is portrayed in a naturalistic manner, capturing muscular details and the flowing mane that characterizes the animal. The sculpture is made from a dark brown material, likely bronze, which gives it a rich and polished appearance. Against the neutral background, the lion looks life-like in terms of its detailed anatomical proportions and texture, especially in the mane and body muscles.
