The image shows a large, abstract, stone sculpture of a mythical creature, possibly a sea king, in a public outdoor space. The sculpture is white or light grey and is situated on a concrete pedestal in the center of the frame. The creature appears to have a crowned head with sharp protrusions, a large, gaping mouth, and a body composed of intertwined forms, including hands, what appear to be fish, and a net-like texture. The sculpture is surrounded by green grass and trees, with a paved walkway made of reddish-brown bricks in the foreground. A dark plaque with text in Russian is visible on the brickwork at the base of the pedestal. In the background, there are more trees, some suggesting a park-like setting, and hints of buildings and a white car in the distance, indicating an urban environment. The overall scene depicts a monument in a public park or square.

The plaque at the base of the sculpture reads in Russian:
"Владыка морской
(Морской царь)
Скульптура выполнена по мотивам сказки П. Ершова "Конек-горбунок".
Изображает морского царя, который владычествует над всем водным миром.
Из глубокой воды, где обитают рыбы и гигантские моллюски,
какие только вдаль плывут,
царь морской, повелитель
всех морских глубин,
приказывает перенестись на
северную землю на своей
морской.
г. Поречск.
В. Г. Матросов.
Скульптор. Член Союза художников.
(1960 г.)"

This translates to:
"The Sea King
(Sea Tsar)
The sculpture is made based on the motifs of P. Ershov's fairy tale "The Little Humpbacked Horse".
It depicts the Sea Tsar, who reigns over the entire aquatic world.
From the deep water, where fish and giant mollusks
swim into the distance,
the Sea Tsar, the ruler
of all the depths of the sea,
orders himself to be transported to
the northern land on his
sea.
g. Poretsk.
V. G. Matrosov.
Sculptor. Member of the Union of Artists.
(1960)"

The sculpture is located in the city of Sterlitamak, Russia, specifically in a park near the intersection of Prospekt Oktyabrya and Yuzhnaya Street. The sculpture itself is known as "The Sea King" and was created in 1960 by sculptor V. G. Matrosov, based on motifs from the fairy tale "The Little Humpbacked Horse" by Pyotr Yershov.
