A weathered stone sculpture of a crouched animal figure with a carved wing on its shoulder and head area, its forelegs straight and its haunches folded beneath it. The figure sits on a rectangular stone plinth, and its paws rest on the base. A plain white cloth forms the backdrop, and the photograph is taken straight on from the front.
