A cheerful cast bronze figure depicting a naked boy plucking the petals from a flower. He wears a wide-brimmed hat adorned with flowers and carries a kind of satchel, suspended by stylized ribbons, which partially conceal his nudity. The sculpture's pose draws on academic statuary, employing an elegant contrapposto.

These types of figures were common in domestic interiors from the 19th century and continued into the 20th. They represented children with a pastoral appearance, in classical poses, often carrying something in their hands.
