The author of the sculpture, Karol Wójciak, also known as Heródek (1892–1971), is considered to be one of the most original amateur artists.
The angel is represented in a primitive way. Its head and torso are made up of a block of wood with a round section, truncated flat on both sides. The wings nailed to the back are made of triangular pieces of wood with a non-planed surface.

The angel is represented in a primitive way. Its head and torso are made up of a block of wood with a round section, truncated flat on both sides. The wings nailed to the back are made of triangular pieces of wood with a non-planed surface. The trunk and wings are painted red and covered with random spots. The face is emphasised with a white oval, large eyes being marked with a navy blue line and navy blue points of pupils. The tip of the nose is marked with a horizontal incision. The red lips show a grimace. The top of the head has multi-coloured spots. Below the face, white spots form an outline of the hand.
