A reddish-brown wood sculpture features a standing man with large, black-outlined eyes and a short black hairstyle. His right arm is missing, while the left hangs straight at his side. He wears a light-colored, knee-length garment. Vertical cracks and paint loss reveal the pale wood beneath the weathered surface. His blocky legs merge into a rectangular base. The figure faces forward with a simplified, stoic expression.
