The sculpture depicts the head of a lion. It is crafted from stone, giving it a grey and slightly textured appearance. The lion's head is shown in profile with pronounced features such as a detailed mane and smooth facial contours. The eyes are depicted in an abstract, almond shape. The sculpture appears to be a fragment, displaying only the head and part of the neck.
