La scultura si presenta all’osservatore con una poderosa apertura verso l’esterno che si spinge oltre il margine del basamento predefinito. La scultura racchiude in sé un senso di esplosione e liberazione che ricordano un’opera giovanile di Caravaggio, risalente al 1601, oggi esposta presso la Pinacoteca Ambrosiana di Milano.
