A bronze statue of Dr. Carlos Arvelo is seated on a black slatted metal park bench in the Plaza Bolívar, Valencia, Venezuela, positioned in front of the Catedral Basílica Nuestra Señora del Socorro. The statue depicts a male figure wearing a formal suit, a collared shirt, and a tie. A device resembling a stethoscope or an early hearing aid is draped around his neck and over his ears. His right arm is extended forward, with an open hand holding a small, indeterminate object. A fedora-style hat rests on the bench to the statue's left, and a dark bag or briefcase is placed on the stone pavement next to the bench. Behind the statue, the light grey facade of the cathedral is visible, featuring two large arched dark brown wooden double doors with intricate paneling. White pilasters frame these doors and separate sections of the building. Two rectangular commemorative plaques are mounted on the grey wall between the white pilasters, directly behind the statue. The ground surface consists of irregular, multi-toned flagstones in shades of grey, beige, and brown. A prominent solid yellow curb extends horizontally across the entire foreground of the image. The scene is illuminated by direct natural light, casting distinct shadows from the statue and bench onto the pavement, suggesting either morning or late afternoon.
