The sculpture is a panel with two symmetrical arches divided by twisted columns. Inside the arches are flower-like motifs emerging from vases. In the left arch, there is the number "1" and a heart symbol, while the right arch features the heart followed by the number "4." Above is a half-circle design with a stylized sun with a face. The sculpture appears to be made from a material resembling weathered stone in grey tones with darker shading. It is placed on a light-colored background.
