The sculpture is a bronze medallion depicting the bust of a man, facing right, in profile.

The medallion is circular with a smooth edge, adorned with small raised circular embellishments along the perimeter. The metal is bronze in color, giving it an aged appearance. Engraving along the border names "FREDERICVS PERRNO ET" with the artist signature "FZAGAR F." near the shoulder of the man. A small hole is visible at the top edge.
