This is an elegant pseudo-monopteral Corinthian Structure on a high plinth, with walls and Decoration alternately in Pentelic and Hymettus Marble, a Marble dome and low relief ornaments depicting Dionysian motifs, including the famous myth of a god changing pirates into dolphins. The Marble dome of the Monument is Decorated with acanthus leaves supporting a bronze trophy. It bears an inscription depicting the name of Lysicrates and his good deeds for the community.
