The sculpture depicts an eagle with its wings spread wide. The material of the sculpture appears to be a grey stone or similar solid material. The eagle is intricately detailed, with visible patterns on its wings and body. Its head is turned slightly to the side, and it appears to be standing firmly on a base, which is part of the same material as the rest of the sculpture.
