This white marble sculpture depicts a figure in a pose of intense physical anguish, twisted and contorted upon a rough stone base. The muscular form is shown with remarkable anatomical detail, from the defined ribcage to the taut tendons in the limbs. The figure's pose is dynamic - leaning backward with one arm braced against the ground and legs folded beneath in an unstable position. Deep cracks and fissures run through the marble, adding to the sense of fragmentation and distress. The sculpture's surface shows signs of age and wear, with a patina that gives the white stone a slightly weathered appearance. The dramatic positioning and evident physical strain portrayed in the figure's body language powerfully reflects the work's title about torment, suggesting an internal struggle made external through the sculptural form.
