The sculpture depicts a lion in a seated position. The lion has a detailed mane, a muscular body, and an uplifted head. It is crafted from dark bronze material. The lion rests on a rectangular base with a polished texture, possibly made of marble, featuring reddish and light brown tones with natural veining patterns. The base provides a contrasting backdrop, enhancing the features of the bronze lion.
