The sculpture is a profile portrait of a bearded man with a long, flowing beard wearing a cap. The sculpture is in a circular medallion format and is made of bronze, giving it a dark golden brown hue with an aged patina. The raised relief of the sculpture emphasizes the intricate details of the features and attire, such as the strands of hair and defined facial features. There is an inscription in large, capitalized letters surrounding the portrait. A small hole near the top edge suggests it could be hung or mounted. The sculpture is proportioned to appear life-like, resembling a historical figure.
