The image depicts a round sculptural medallion with a profile portrait of a man. The man has curly hair tied with a bow and is dressed in detailed attire with ruffled decoration at the neck. The inscription "Hyaascinthe De Rigaud, Comte De Vaudreuil" is seen along the border of the medallion. Crafted from terracotta, the sculpture has a warm, reddish-brown color. The portrait is raised above the surface of the medallion, creating a three-dimensional effect against the flat, circular background. The sculpture displays intricate facial features and hair texture.
