A hand-carved wooden sculpture composed of a vertically oriented figure rising from a circular base. The elongated cylindrical body supports a rounded head with simplified facial features, while a single horizontal arm projects from one side of the torso, creating an asymmetrical silhouette. The opposite side remains comparatively uninterrupted, emphasizing the relationship between solid volume and projecting form. Carved tool marks and subtle surface irregularities remain visible beneath layers of white paint and pigmented wax, allowing the hand-worked character of the wood to remain evident. The sculpture balances geometric simplicity with softly modeled anatomical elements through a restrained composition
