    A boy in a turban carefully carries a tray with a small vessel, turning his torso and head. Loose harem trousers and a short high-collared jacket form a stylized Oriental costume. Warm gold-brown bronze clothing contrasts with ivory face, hands, turban and vessel. The figure stands on a green-onyx base.
