An angel with a halo sits on two escutcheons or shields; one to the angel's right bears a grotesque or fantastical face in its center. The angel wears a long robe and has long and curly hair. Its wings protrude from its back with one raised and the other lowered. The angel's face looks forward and slightly right with its mouth closed. The background is an aged light brown color. The drawing appears to be made with pencil on aged paper.
