The sculpture depicts a nude male figure crouching with his knees bent and hands behind him. His head is turned to the left with a slightly pained or strained expression. The sculpture is made of a dark material, likely bronze, giving it a polished, dark brown color with subtle variations that accentuate the muscular details of the figure. The material reflects light, highlighting the contours and features of the man's body. The figure rests on a rectangular, stepped base that is also of the same brown material. The proportions are realistic, and the details such as the curly hair and defined musculature add a lifelike quality to the sculpture.
