The sculpture depicts a man's head and upper torso in profile view. The figure has distinct facial features, including a nose, beard, and a serious expression. He wears a metallic-looking band or cap on his head. The sculpture is primarily made of a brown material, likely wood, with dark and light variations in tone. The cap appears metallic in grayish tones. Two accompanying sketches show the sculpture's front and back views. The name "Carl Keksi" is inscribed at the bottom of the illustration. The sculpture has a hollow, pipe-like shape at the neck, suggestive of a functional object from history.
