The image is a photograph of a sculpture of a lion's head on display in a museum. The sculpture is made of a light-colored material, possibly stone or plaster, and is mounted on a white pedestal. The lion's face is elongated and pointed, with a large nose and a small mouth. Its eyes are closed, and its mouth is slightly open, as if it is snarling. The head is facing towards the right side of the image, and the background is dark, making the sculpture stand out.
