The sculpture depicts a nude male figure standing in a classical contrapposto pose with an elongated object in his right hand and his left hand raised. His hair is curly, and his facial expression appears serene. There is an irregularly shaped column or plinth supporting his stance. The sculpture is in grayscale, suggesting a light-colored material like marble or plaster. It appears life-sized and is highly detailed, emphasizing the figure's anatomical features and muscle structure.
