The sculpture is a representation of a human head on a square base that forms the neck and shoulders. It is made from a material with silver and gold tones and a textured surface finish. There are anatomical or phrenological markings on its surface. The sculpture has a smooth, expressionless face with closed eyes. Its dimensions and anatomical accuracy give it a lifelike appearance.
