The sculpture is a round medallion featuring a profile portrait of a man's head. The man has curled hair and a laurel wreath, looking to the right. The medallion is made of a bronze-colored material. The edges of the medallion are smooth and slightly raised, with a hole near the top center. Around the portrait, there are inscriptions in raised lettering. The overall look of the medallion suggests it is a detailed and fine embossed work.
