A bronze bust of a man is centrally positioned on a tall, rectangular pedestal crafted from reddish-brown speckled marble. The man in the bust wears glasses, a collared shirt, and a jacket. Below the bust, on the pedestal, the characters "作者 程允贤" (Author: Cheng Yunxian) are inscribed. Directly below this, the name "夏衍" (Xia Yan) and his lifespan "(1900-1995)" are displayed. The lower section of the pedestal features a detailed biography of Xia Yan in gold Chinese characters, outlining his original name (Shen Duanxian), origin (Yuyao, Zhejiang), career as a film playwright, theorist, and entrepreneur, his entry into cinema in 1932, involvement in the left-wing film movement, significant works (e.g., "Red Flow," "Storm," "Shanghai 24 Hours," "Under the Eaves of Shanghai," "Blessing," "Lin Family Shop," "Revolutionary Family," "In the Heat of Life"), and his post-1949 leadership in cultural and film affairs, culminating in his 1995 recognition as an "Outstanding Contributor to Film Art." The background consists of a uniformly light-colored, pleated curtain. The floor beneath the pedestal is made of polished wooden planks arranged in parallel. A portion of another similar pedestal is visible to the right. This display is likely located within the China Film Archive or a related film institution in Fengtai District, Beijing, China.
