The sculpture is a circular, bronze relief depicting multiple figures engaged in a dynamic scene. At the center, figures on horses appear to be in motion. Surrounding them, other figures seem to be in a struggle, with some holding shields or weapons. The bronze relief showcases intricate detailing in high relief. The figures are relatively small, indicating the sculpture is meant to be viewed up close.
