This sculpture depicts an eleven-headed, eight armed Avalokiteshvara, the bodhisattva of Compassion. The two upper heads are a rather fierce head and the head of the Buddha Amitabha.

The attribute in his top right hand is missing; in his upper left hand he holds a lotus bud. Two more hands on the right hold a prayer wheel and display the varada mudra or the gesture of giving. In his two other hands on the left he holds the elixir of immortality and one implement is missing. He holds the two hands in front of him in the namaskara mudra. The missing attributes are probably a bow and arrow.

The sculpture features elegant proportions, elaborate princely jewellery, traces of blue paint in the hair and flowing garments with attention to textile patterns. The facial features are distinguished by highly arched eyebrows, tilted eyes with eyelids curving in a shallow S-shape, sharp nose and full lips – all trademark characteristics of the Zanabazar sculptural style.
