About this work

This sculpture shows a person crouched down, holding their head with one hand while their other arm rests on their knee. The figure’s body is turned slightly to the side, with muscles and posture clearly defined. The surface looks smooth but has some rough spots, especially around the edges. The photo’s dark background makes the light-colored stone stand out sharply. Notice how the light hits the figure’s back and arms, creating strong contrasts.
