The image features two oval-shaped portraits of men. The man on the left wears 18th-century attire, including a high-collared jacket and cravat, with short, curly white hair. The number "1789" is printed above this portrait. The man on the right wears 19th-century clothing, with a suit and tie, and has a full white beard and short white hair. Above this portrait is the number "1889." Both portraits are surrounded by decorative laurel wreaths. The background includes a pattern with American flags and a motif of an eagle with outstretched wings holding arrows and an olive branch beneath the portraits. Additional smaller stars adorn the border. The backdrop is a plain, neutral surface.
