Descrizione dell’immagine
The sculpture depicts a standing figure with a draped garment holding an object. It is made of a material with a brownish hue, placed on a brown-toned pedestal with ornate patterns, situated in front of a grand architectural facade. The facade features fluted pilasters and decorative panels, with a ceiling above the sculpture adorned with an arched starburst pattern. The composition is refined and symmetrical, complementing the classical architectural setting.
