The image shows a stone sculpture of three figures supporting a large globe. The central figure, likely Atlas, is depicted with muscular arms raised, bearing the weight of the globe. To his left, a smaller figure, possibly a Caryatid, also supports the globe. Another figure is partially visible to the right of the central figure. The sculpture is adorned with flowing drapery, giving it a sense of movement and drama. Above the sculpture, a decorative frieze featuring three wreaths and stylized columns is mounted on a pale yellow building facade. This architectural detail suggests a classical or neoclassical style. The sculpture is positioned on a dark, multi-tiered pedestal against the building. The scene is illuminated by sunlight, casting shadows and highlighting the textures of the stone. The overall impression is one of grandeur and artistic craftsmanship. This sculpture is located at the eastern facade of the New Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia.
