This image depicts a vertical bas-relief sculpture, identified as being located in La Paz, Bolivia. The central subject is a mermaid rendered with metallic bronze and teal-blue patinas, set within a recessed panel framed by light-colored wood. The mermaid is depicted in a reclining or floating pose, oriented with her head towards the top and her tail curving to the bottom. Her face is in profile, eyes closed, with long, wavy hair flowing around her head and upper torso. Her left arm is raised, with the hand near her head, while her right arm extends downwards. Her bare torso features two shell-shaped adornments over the breasts. Below her navel, her body transitions into a textured, scaled fish tail, predominantly teal-blue with bronze highlights, which curves upward from the bottom right towards her waist, then downward to the bottom left. The background of the relief is intricately textured, representing an underwater environment with undulating forms suggestive of water currents, seaweed, and rocks. Two small fish are visible in the upper right section, swimming above her right hand. A prominent, ridged seashell is situated near her waist on the left side, and a starfish can be seen in the lower left corner. The entire relief exhibits varying shades of metallic bronze, gold, and dark teal-blue, creating a sense of depth and luminescence. The artwork is mounted on a plain, light-grey wall.
