The sculpture is a round relief depicting a pastoral scene with a central figure of a horse drinking from a stream. Behind the horse, there is detailed landscape featuring a herder standing with a staff, surrounded by a herd of animals, and two structures resembling tall columns with conical roofs. Various plants and trees are spread throughout the background. An inscription "SIG . VIRVS . A . SACRIS" encircles the top edge. The sculpture is made from brownish-metal material, likely bronze, with an aged and textured surface. The relief offers intricate details that convey depth within the scene.
