The artwork is a detailed wood carving that depicts a large wolf stepping from it den, a natural opening framed by tree branches and roots. The wolf is carved with textured fur and expressive facial features, including visible eyes and a slightly open mouth. The surrounding tree elements envelop the wolf, creating a sense of depth and framing. The carving also features a raven perched on the upper right side of the branches, adding a complementary wildlife element to the scene. The wood's natural grain and burnished shading enhance the textures and contours of the carving, highlighting the craftsmanship and attention to detail.
