The Academy Awards, also known as the Oscars, will be held at Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California, on Sunday.
Winners in each category receive a replica of a golden statuette referred to as the “Academy Award of Merit” trophy.
However, the Academy Award of Merit statuette is commonly referred to by its nickname, “Oscar.”
The statuette depicts a knight in Art Deco style and was sculpted by Los Angeles artist George Stanley based on a sketch by art director Cedric Gibbons.
In this year’s edition, the Multiverse science-fiction blockbuster “Everything, Everywhere, All at Once” receives eleven nominations, while the Irish dark comedy “The Banshees of Inisherin” and the World War I film “All Quiet on the Western Front” each receive nine nominations.
