Solid cast bronze statuette of an old sileen, which shows animal features: horse ears, heavy eyebrows and a blunt mops nose. The sileen is bald, has a wavy beard and a seated but supple body. Because of the pleasures of the wine, he seems to have something unstable. The right leg is placed backwards and carries the entire body weight, which creates a beautiful, S-shaped rotation in the body, counterpost. The clothing has partially slipped off the body. On the claws, which depend on the left upper arm and the left lower leg, it is a pantervel. The sileen has attributes worn in both hands, left
