Decorative sculpted figures climb and cling to the vase, including a prominent partially draped female figure with arms raised and flowing hair, smaller reclining and reaching figures entwined along the vase's side, and floral or garland-like sculptural details cascading downward. The image shows strong contrasts of light and shadow emphasizing the smooth curves of the vase and the three-dimensional forms of the figures. The edges of the photograph are framed by a lighter border.
