A bronze statue of a seated male figure, exhibiting a green patina, is centrally positioned in a public square in Helsinki, Finland. The figure's head is bowed, and he appears to be looking downwards. This statue rests on a tall, reddish-brown polished granite plinth, which is inscribed with "ALEKSIS KIVI" in capital letters on its front face. The plinth has a lighter, rough-hewn stone base. Behind the statue, a large tree with light green, elongated leaves occupies the left and central background, with its branches partially obscuring the view. To the right of the tree and behind the statue, a multi-story building constructed from light gray rough-hewn stone blocks is visible, featuring numerous arched and rectangular windows and ornamental architectural details on its facade. The ground in the foreground is paved with reddish-brown interlocking pavers. In the lower left foreground, a section of neatly trimmed green hedge is visible, bordering a small garden bed containing a red flower and other foliage. In the lower right foreground, a person wearing a dark blue jacket and dark trousers is seated on the stone base of the plinth, with a light-colored can or cup placed beside them. A white and gray bird is present on the paved ground in the far lower right corner. The scene is illuminated by an overcast sky.
