Standing figure of a woman in the foreground, with a landscape visible in the distance. The figure represents "Pomona," ancient Roman goddess of fruit. She is depicted in 2/3 length, facing right. In her left arm she carries a blue and white porcelain bowl filled with various fruit. In her extended right hand, she holds a pineapple, a symbol of welcome and hospitality.
This large wooden sculpture in a mid-tone brown color is a large log resting horizontally and partially split both front-to-back and side-to-side. It rests on a base that appears to be made of the same wood.
