Pale stone sculpture of a Medieval King. The King wears a high crown with wavy shoulder length hair, a long, pointed beard and simple clothing. He holds a sword aloft pointing upwards in his right hand and an orb in his left. The sculpture's nose has broken off and the detail of the sculpture is eroded in various places. The sculpture is set against a plain blue background.
