Statue of a bearded man standing on a low platform. His right hand reaches up and out to the side, his hand in a fist. His left arm is missing beyond the elbow. The man’s face is slightly upturned. His arms and chest are bare, and a voluminous garment is wrapped around his left shoulder, waist, and legs. The entire surface of the statue is gilded, though the finish is worn away around the man’s face, neck, arms, and legs. The terracotta beneath is a pale gray color.
