A youth seated upon a rock in profile to the right. He is nude having discarded his chlamys upon which he now rests his left elbow. His right arm is also relaxed but he holds a spear in his hand, the head of which lies against his shoulder. In front is a tree from which his sword in its scabbard is suspended.
