A bronze sculpture of a woman, positioned slightly off-center to the right of the frame, depicts a dancer in a dynamic pose. The woman appears to be of African descent, likely in her late teens or early twenties, and displays a slender, graceful build. Her skin tone is a warm, deep bronze hue that matches the overall sculpture's material. She is wearing a stylized, Art Deco-inspired costume. A short, pleated skirt, reminiscent of a 1920s flapper dress, is a mix of bronze and shimmering green. The dress features decorative green bands with gold accents that cross the bodice and outline the skirt's pleated pattern. Her arms are raised, reaching out and slightly away from the viewer. Her face is expressive, with a serene yet animated expression. Her body is angled, and her feet rest on a circular, dark stone base that sits upon a larger, light-orange/peach colored, stone pedestal. The light source is directed from above and in front of the dancer, highlighting her form and the details of the costume. The background is a muted, gray-taupe color that serves as a backdrop to the detailed bronze figure. The perspective is relatively close and slightly angled. The overall style evokes the Art Deco era, with a smooth, polished finish typical of bronze sculptures. The composition is balanced and dynamic, showcasing the dancer's graceful motion.
