A verdigris-patinated bronze statue of a male figure, identified as Poseidon/Neptune holding a trident in his right hand, stands partially submerged in the calm, dark blue-green waters of the Black Sea. The water level reaches approximately the statue's upper thighs. A small, light-colored bird is perched atop the statue's head. The water's surface exhibits subtle ripples. In the mid-ground, the distant coastline of Varna, Bulgaria, is visible under a hazy, pale blue-grey sky. A prominent, multi-story, light-colored building complex with numerous windows is situated on the lower part of a tree-covered hillside near the shore. Additional residential structures are scattered further up the vegetated slope. The scene is illuminated by diffused, even light, suggesting overcast conditions or atmospheric haze.
