A full-length white marble statue of a bearded, nude male figure stands centrally within an arched niche in the Vatican Museums, Vatican City. The muscular figure is depicted in a contrapposto pose, with his left arm bent behind his back and his right hand resting on a club draped with a lion's skin, which extends down to the base. His head is turned slightly to the right, with a solemn expression. The statue's genitalia are visible, covered by sculpted pubic hair. It rests on a multi-tiered marble base. The niche features a dark grey, textured interior wall, contrasting with the light-colored, veined marble that frames the arch and covers the surrounding wall surfaces. An informational plaque is visible on the lower left marble wall. Overhead lighting illuminates the statue, highlighting its form and texture.
