The sculpture shows a nude male figure kneeling on a square base. The torso is twisted slightly to the right, the head is bent down to the shell being held against the chest by the right arm. The shell is supported by the left arm which bent and crosses the chest with the hand cupped against the upper right arm. The surface of the figure is green with patches of dark brown.
