The sculpture depicts a standing human figure draped in a flowing garment that wraps around the body and covers the head. This figure appears to be in a relaxed stance, and part of the garment is delicately drawn over one shoulder while the rest of the fabric seems to hang in soft folds. The sculpture is predominantly a light, creamy beige with subtle hints of reddish-brown tones. The piece is crafted from a material that appears to be a form of terracotta or stone. Its size relative to us appears diminutive, as suggested by the level of detail and the small base on which it stands. The surface of the sculpture is textured.
