The sculpture depicts a shield-shaped relief of a battle scene with figures such as soldiers and a knight on horseback. The figures are portrayed in active poses, some raising weapons, while the central figure on horseback appears to be charging forward with a lance. Background elements include a fortified tower and what appears to be a bridge over water. The sculpture is made of a metallic material with a bronze or gold tint. The relief is designed to be viewed from the front, providing a detailed narrative of the action within a compact form.
