    The sculpture is distinguished by slender proportions and a flowing silhouette. Soft modelling conveys the lines of the body, while the polished marble surface emphasizes subtle transitions of light and shade. The absence of additional details focuses attention on the figure and the purity of its contours. The generalized form and clarity are characteristic of Art Deco decorative sculpture, while the natural veining of the stone gives the work particular expressiveness.
