The sculpture depicts a figure resembling a Native American man, standing upright with his arms crossed over his chest. He is adorned in traditional attire, featuring a colorful headdress with feathers in shades of yellow, red, and orange. The clothing includes a maroon draped garment with accents in yellow and white, and knee-high boots that match the maroon hue of the attire. The sculpture is made from a material with a polished, smooth texture, in earth tones of brown, red, and beige. The base of the sculpture mimics a small mound.
