The sword is held in the statue's right hand, with the tip pointing downwards. The drawing is rendered in a range of tones, from light to dark, which gives the impression of depth and dimensionality. The level of detail in the armor and the facial expression of the statue suggests a high level of craftsmanship. The drawing is a testament to the skill of the unknown artist, who has captured the essence of the statue with remarkable precision.
