The sculpture is a profile portrait of a woman dressed elegantly and adorned with elaborate accessories. She has a detailed hairstyle with curls and braids, along with a decorative headpiece. The woman's attire is ornate with intricate designs and a beaded necklace. The sculpture is on a circular medal made of a silvery metallic material. Along the circumference of the medal, there is inscribed text identifying the woman as MAR.ANTON.AUSTR.FRANCIAE ET NAVARR.REGINA, denoting her royal status. The piece combines detailed artistry with a historical and regal presentation, akin to historical portraiture, but in a small, tangible form as a medal.
