The sculpture is a bust of a man named Swedenborg, as indicated by the plaque on the base. The subject is shown from approximately the chest up, with detailed carvings of his facial features and attire. The sculpture is primarily composed of light-colored stone, possibly marble or granite, with a weathered appearance. The man in the sculpture has a serious demeanor, with his hair styled in an older fashion. The bust is mounted on a tall pedestal in an outdoor park area. There are leafless trees in the background and a large body of water visible beyond.
