This Elvis statue depicts the King as a younger man, wearing a red sports jacket and black slacks.
He would appear to be in mid-song with his legs twisted in his gyrating fashion. The statue is probably made of cast iron. There is no indication of the artist or date.

Wikipedia (visit link) has this one line entry about the minor planet:

"17059 Elvis is a minor planet that was discovered by John Broughton on April 15, 1999. It is named after Elvis Presley."
