The sculpture depicts a stylized deer with an elongated form. It lowers its head. The sculpture is made of a dark material, likely bronze, giving it a rich, dark hue with subtle variations in tone. The deer stands on a small, oval base made of a lighter material that contrasts with the dark surface of the sculpture. The appearance of the sculpture suggests a sense of fluidity and natural movement, creating a visually striking representation of an animal.
