The image displays a monumental, light-colored stone sculpture featuring three idealized human figures, prominently affixed to a large, light-grey tiled stone wall. This sculpture is located on the facade of the Faculdade de Letras (Faculty of Arts and Humanities) at the Universidade de Coimbra in Coimbra, Portugal. The central figure is a standing male, nude with an athletic build, facing frontally. A ribbed, band-like cloth covers his waist and groin. His left hand holds a rolled object by his side. His head is turned slightly to the viewer's left, gazing upwards with a stoic expression. Dark streaks from weathering are visible under his chin and across his shoulders. Flanking the male are two female figures, positioned slightly behind him and angled inwards. The female figure to the viewer's left is partially draped in fabric around her lower body, her upper torso bare. Her left arm is bent, holding a gathered piece of fabric or an indistinct object near her hip. Her head is tilted upwards and to the right. The female figure to the viewer's right is similarly partially draped in fabric, with her upper torso exposed. Her right arm is bent, holding a cluster of floral or organic elements near her hip. Her head is tilted upwards and to the left. All three figures stand on a rectangular stone plinth, which is integrated into the architectural wall. The stone exhibits signs of weathering, including dark biological growth and mineral streaking, particularly on the shoulders, chests of the figures, and along the base of the plinth. The wall itself consists of large, smooth rectangular panels with visible horizontal and vertical grout lines. The perspective is upward, emphasizing the scale of the sculpture against the building.
