A bedroll, large haversack and smaller bag are slung across his shoulders. A bayonet is strapped to a belt at his waist. He is holding his rifle at parade rest, proper left leg forward, proper right leg supported by a tree trunk. The sculpture is mounted on a tiered base, with stepped, rough cut lower section."
