The sculpture is a medallion featuring the profile view of a man's head. The man is depicted with detailed facial features and short, wavy hair. The medallion is made of metal with a muted silver or bronze color. Surrounding the profile, there is an inscribed text along the outer edges of the medallion. The man is shown wearing a garment with a patterned texture around the neck resembling a high collar. The sculpture is intricately crafted, with fine attention to detail in the hair and facial characteristics, giving it a lifelike yet stylized appearance.
