The sculpture is a circular bas-relief medallion featuring a reclining ox on an earthen landscape with vegetation details around its legs. Above the ox, there is an inscription, "FESSVS LAMPADA TRADO." The medallion is primarily dark bronze and tarnished hues with spots of reddish-brown patina, suggesting it is made of metal with an antiqued finish. The surface texture is slightly rough and worn, giving it a sense of age and craftsmanship. The overall appearance is reminiscent of classical medal art.
