The sculpture is a relief portrait of a man in profile, facing left. It depicts the bust of the man with detailed, curly hair tied back with a ribbon, and a sculpted face showing a prominent nose and chin. The sculpture is embedded on a medallion, surrounded by a circular band containing inscriptions or letters. It is made of bronze, giving it a rich, brownish-gold color that is reflective and slightly weathered. The sculpture appears small, comparable in size to a large coin, with a hole at the top and bottom. The three-dimensional effect of the relief provides depth and shadowing, accentuating the facial features and hair texture of the subject.
