The image is a photograph of an ancient artifact displayed in a glass case. The artifact appears to be made of a light-colored material, possibly stone or pottery, and is in the shape of a lion's head. The head is facing towards the left side of the image, with its mouth open and its tongue sticking out. The lion's mane and tail are intricately carved into the stone, and its eyes are closed, giving it a peaceful and serene expression. The sculpture is displayed on a clear acrylic stand, and there is a small bowl visible in the bottom right corner of the frame.
