The sculpture is a medal featuring a portrait of a man presented in profile, facing left. He is dressed in a high-collared garment with intricate decorations and a large, ornate hat. The edges of the medal have Latin inscriptions. The material appears to be metallic with a greyish tone. The detailing gives the impression of a relief sculpture.
