Her arms hang near her body, and a draped cloth rests over a rough base at her left side against a dark grey backdrop. The figure is shown in full, with a smooth, classical modelling of the body.

Español: Modelo de la esclava griega, de Hiram Powers

Figura femenina desnuda de pie, en yeso de tono pálido, con la cabeza inclinada hacia abajo y el cabello recogido en un moño. Sus brazos caen junto al cuerpo, y una tela drapeada descansa sobre una base rugosa a su izquierda, frente a un fondo gris oscuro. La escultura se muestra completa, con un modelado suave y de estilo clásico.
