This sculptural lion’s head is rendered in a neoclassical style with a prominent, stylized mane. It is constructed from a coarse, granular material consistent with cast stone or concrete, presenting a mottled grey-brown coloration. Likely intended as an architectural ornament or garden feature, such as a fountain mask, given the open mouth design. Visible markings include an orange rectangular sticker near the top displaying ’45’, and a white rectangular sticker on the lower left side of the muzzle showing ‘LL’.
