The image features a close-up side profile of a man's face illustrated on what seems to be a coin or medallion. The man is depicted in profile, facing to the right. His facial features include a distinct nose, slightly open mouth, beard connecting to his hair, wavy and curly hair, and a visible ear. The man has medium-length hair. Beside his face, the words "CH. METOME" are etched vertically. The background is plain to emphasize the profile. At the bottom, there are artistic text and engraver's marks, including the artist's initials "B", "C.M.", and location details.
