The sculpture is a circular medallion featuring a relief depiction of a male figure holding a snake in one hand as he looks back over his shoulder. He is partially draped and appears muscular. In the background, there is a tree and an urn with extended, wing-like handles. The sculpture is made of a brown material with a textured surface, likely bronze or a similar metal. The word "VIRTUS" is inscribed at the bottom of the medallion. There is a hole at the top of the piece, possibly for suspension. The design captures a detailed scene within the small round space, reminiscent of historical emblems or medals.
