A white marble statue, approximately 2.5 meters tall, depicts a smiling, bald, robed monk-like figure seated astride a large, stylized bird with prominent wings and scaled legs. The figure holds a bowl-like object in its left hand, raised to chest level, and has its right hand raised in a gesture, palm facing forward. The bird's head is elongated and upward-pointing. The statue rests on a roughly hewn rectangular concrete base. A black plaque affixed to the front of the base bears white Vietnamese text: "CỮ BÁT LA HÁN" followed by "Tay dâng chiếc Bát... lên trời / Để luôn phụng sự cõi đời lắm thân." This translates to "Arhat Cư Bát" (Arhat holding a bowl) and a verse implying service to life. The statue is situated outdoors on a patch of grass and paved ground, with a bed of red flowering plants (likely impatiens) in the foreground to the left. Lush green trees and foliage form the background under an overcast sky. This scene is located at Chùa Linh Ứng Pagoda, Sơn Trà Peninsula, Đà Nẵng, Vietnam.
