The image shows a sculpted medallion featuring the profile of a bearded man with wavy hair facing to the right. The sculpted figure exhibits detailed hair and beard, with individual strands and curls. The subject appears to be wearing a garment with a wide collar and intricately patterned fabric. The letters "LVDOVICVS ARIOSTVS" are inscribed around the profile. The medallion is made of metal, likely bronze, with a brown color, aged patina, and signs of oxidation. This medallion is a small, circular sculpture likely designed to commemorate an individual.
