Summary:
Two figures -- an elderly man, dressed in slacks, a collared shirt, and shoes, sitting on a bench with his elbows resting on his knees and his hands extended outward and a young girl, dressed in shorts, a t-shirt, and shoes. She wears her hair in pig-tails, and kneels in front of the man offering him a leaf with her proper right hand. The sculpture rests on a square foundation.
