The image shows a winged figure in profile, walking to the right. The figure is holding a circular object in their right hand while the left hand holds the edge of their draped garment. The facial features include a straight nose and a closed mouth with hair tied back, crowned with a laurel wreath. The attire consists of a classical-style robe with draped folds, revealing part of a leg. The figure has feathered wings emerging from the back. In the background, there is a patterned surface on the ground, and to the side, a large compass or divider is placed beside a square block. The scene includes the inscription "PRUDENCIA" along the right side, and the letters "HSB" appear in the upper left corner, along with the numeral "2."
