A stone statue of a female figure, identified as Judith, stands centrally on an exterior architectural facade. The figure, depicted in a long, draped gown with a veil and a diadem on her head, holds a severed male head by the hair in her left hand, positioned below her left hip. Her right hand grasps a short blade or dagger, pointed downwards, near her right thigh. The statue is situated on a stone plinth, set against a background of large, light-colored stone blocks. Flanking the statue are two prominent, fluted classical columns. Above the statue, decorative carved stone elements are visible. To the right of the central columns, additional architectural features include a smaller column with an ornate capital, and a section of a deep red surface, possibly a door or recess. In the lower right foreground, a curved stone balustrade with multiple balusters and a rounded cap is present, suggesting a balcony or staircase. This specific statue of Judith with the Head of Holofernes is located on the facade of the Palais de Justice Historique (Palace of Justice, also known as "Les 24 Colonnes") in Lyon, France.
