The sculpture is a circular medallion depicting a full-length figure of a nude woman. She is standing, holding a small animal and a dish or basket. The woman's hair is styled or adorned. A serpent is coiling around her legs. The medallion has the word "VIGILANTIA" inscribed at the top. It is made of a bronze-like metal with a brown color and a slightly aged patina. Some greenish hues are visible, possibly due to oxidation. The relief carving shows textural details accentuated by light and shadow. There is a small hole near the top of the medallion.
