A porcelain sculpture depicts a woman standing atop an ornate, perforated base. She wears a white gown patterned with pink and green flowers beneath a blue cloak with yellow lining, cradling a cornucopia of blossoms. At her feet, a brown lion reclines and gazes upward. The scrolled white base is decorated with pink and green pigment and punctuated by large circular holes, with small sculpted flowers scattered around the surface.
