A dark brown and green bronze sculpture depicts a woman's bust, her head tilted slightly toward our left. Thick, wavy hair flows around her shoulders, framing a face with a furrowed brow and gazing eyes. Her mouth is slightly open, and the surface is highly textured with rough, uneven modeling. The dark metal shifts in tones of brown and green patina within the recessed areas of the face and hair.
