The sculpture depicts a stag with prominent antlers standing over two resting deer, one on each side. The animals show a naturalistic and graceful appearance. The sculpture is primarily a dark metallic color, likely made of a material such as bronze. The stag stands above the other two deer, which are laying down on a textured base. The surface of the sculpture is smooth and slightly reflective, with detailed texturing defining the animals' fur and musculature. The composition captures a moment of interaction among the animals, oriented towards the viewer.
